Sponsor's own description

This phase II trial studies if itacitinib plus standard of care treatment may help prevent graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) in patients who have received an allogeneic (donor) stem cell transplant. An allogeneic transplant uses blood-making cells from a family member or unrelated donor to remove and replace a patient's abnormal blood cells. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can attack the body's normal cells (called graft-versus-host disease). Giving itacitinib with standard of care treatment after the transplant may stop this from happening.
