The Safety and Efficacy of Alpha-1 Antitrypsin (AAT) for the Prevention of Graft-versus-host Disease (GVHD) in Patients Receiving Hematopoietic Cell Transplant

A Phase 2/3, Multicenter, randOmized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, stUdy to evaLuate the Safety and Efficacy of Alpha-1 AntiTrypsin for the prEvention of Graft-versus-host Disease in Patients Receiving Hematopoietic Cell Transplant (MODULAATE Study)

This study is a phase 2 / 3 prospective, double-blind, randomized, multicenter, placebo-controlled study for prevention of acute GVHD (aGVHD) in participants undergoing an unrelated (matched or single allele mismatched) or matched related allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT).

Inclusion Criteria:

• • Male or female participants, >=12 years of age (>= 18 years of age for participants at German sites only), undergoing HCT for hematological malignancies, including leukemia, lymphoma, multiple myeloma, myelodysplastic syndrome, and myeloproliferative neoplasms.
• • Planned myeloablative conditioning regimen.
• • Participants must have a related or unrelated donor as follows:
• - Related donor must be a 6 / 6 match for human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A, -B, at intermediate (or higher) resolution, and -DR beta 1 (DRB1) at high resolution using deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)-based typing.
• - Unrelated donor must be 7 / 8 or 8 / 8 match for HLA-A, -B, and -C at intermediate (or higher) resolution, and -DRB1 at high resolution using DNA-based typing.

Exclusion Criteria:

• • Prior autologous or allogeneic HCT.
• • T cell depleted transplant or planned use of anti-T cell antibody therapy either ex vivo or in vivo (ie, anti thymocyte globulin [ATG], alemtuzumab) for GVHD prophylaxis.
• • Planned umbilical cord blood transplant.
• • Planned use of cyclophosphamide after HCT for GVHD prophylaxis.
• • Planned haploidentical donor.
