PHASE2

Brief Summary

In this prospective study is to examine whether the use of everolimus in patients after allogeneic SCT as part of GVHD prophylaxis for a further review in clinical studies is appropriate.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Patients after allogeneic stem cell transplantation aged ≥ 18 years
  • Prophylaxes of GvHD with calcineurin inhibitors (Ciclosporine A, Tacrolimus) and MTX or MMF (previous therapy of acute GvHD with additional prednisone is permitted)
  • Increased risk of chronic GvHD, defined by
  • Male with female donor
  • HLA mismatch class I- or II towards GvHD
  • Persistant active acute GvHD on day +50 after stem cell transplantation despite of high-dose steroids and cyclosporine
  • Reduction of baseline FEV1 or DLCO (examined 0 - 50 days before transplantation) of ≥ 25%
  • New occurrence of acute GvHD between day +50 and +100 after stem cell transplantation
  • Informed concent

Exclusion

  • Use (prophylactic or therapeutic) of mTor inhibitors after SCT
  • Overlap of acute and chronic GvHD
  • Total cholesterol ≥ 3-fold of upper limit (UL) or triglycerides ≥ 3-fold UL
  • GOT, GPT, Bilirubin ≥ 3-fold UL (if not related to GvHD)
  • Creatinine ≥ 3-fold UL

  • Sexual abstinence
  • Vasectomy
  • Condom
  • Impairments or diseases reducing the ability of informed consent
