Alemtuzumab as Treatment of Steroid-Refractory Acute Graft-versus-Host Disease: Results of a Phase II Study

We conducted a phase II trial to investigate the safety and efficacy of alemtuzumab in treating steroid-refractory acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) grade II or higher after stem cell transplantation. Ten adult patients (6 with aGVHD grade III and 4 with aGVHD grade IV) were included in the st...

Ten adult patients (6 with aGVHD grade III and 4 with aGVHD grade IV) were included in the study. Nine patients had gastrointestinal tract involvement, 7 had skin involvement, and 5 had liver involvement. Five patients responded to treatment, 2 with complete response and 3 with partial response. Eight infectious events (4 of grade 3-4) and 7 cytomegalovirus (CMV) reactivations were observed. Six patients had grade 3-4 cytopenia.
