Vedolizumab in the Prophylaxis of Intestinal Acute Graft Versus Host Disease (aGVHD) in Participants Undergoing Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell (Allo-HSCT) Transplantation

Official Title:

A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multicenter Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Vedolizumab in the Prophylaxis of Intestinal Acute Graft Versus-Host Disease in Subjects Undergoing Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of vedolizumab when added to background aGvHD prophylaxis regimen compared to placebo and background aGvHD prophylaxis regimen on intestinal aGvHD-free survival by Day +180 in participants who receive allo-HSCT as treatment for a hematologic malignancy or myeloproliferative disorder.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Must be >= 18 years of age and, in selected countries, adolescents aged 12 years and greater and weighing >=30 kilogram (kg) at time of randomization.
2. Must undergo deoxyribose nucleic acid (DNA)-based human leukocyte antigen (HLA) matching and be 8 of 8 or 7 of 8 HLA-matched (singe allele or antigen mismatch at HLA-A, -B, and -C, and HLA-DRB1 is allowable) unrelated hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) from either peripheral blood or bone marrow stem cells for a hematologic malignancy or myeloproliferative disorder.
3. For whom a myeloablative conditioning or reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) is planned.
4. Allo-HSCT eligible (meeting institutional criteria)-participants planned medical care should include aGvHD prophylaxis with a combination of calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) (cyclosporine \[CYS\] or tacrolimus \[TAC\]) and methotrexate (MTX) or CNI and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF). With the exception of antithymocyte globulin (ATG) (antithymocyte globulin-Fresenius \[ATG-F\] or thymoglobulin), all other therapies, approved or investigational, for GvHD prophylaxis are excluded.
5. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of <= 2 for participants aged >=18 years at randomization or >=60 % using the Karnofsky performance status for adolescent participants aged >=16 years at randomization or the Lansky performance status for adolescent participants aged 12 to < 16 years at randomization.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Had prior allo- HSCT.
2. Planned umbilical cord blood transplant or planned to receive posttransplant cyclophosphamide, in vivo or ex vivo T cell-depleted hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) with the exception of ATG (ATG-F or thymoglobulin).
3. Planned allo-HSCT for nonmalignant hematological disorders (example, aplastic anemia, sickle cell anemia, thalassemias, Fanconi anemia or immunodeficiency).
