In this activity, experts in graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) provide learners with a solid grounding in the underlying biology and immunologic rationale for the use of various treatment modalities throughout the GVHD spectrum, including steroid-naïve and steroid-refractory disease, while also detailing how the clinical evidence to date on novel agents should inform the prevention and treatment of this disease in hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: Describe the pathogenesis of post-HCT GVHD and the rationale for the use of novel therapies for the treatment of patients with or at risk of developing GVHD; Summarize current data surrounding innovative therapies for the prevention or treatment of acute or chronic, steroid-naïve or steroid-refractory GVHD in the HCT setting; Integrate approved and emerging therapies into treatment plans, including clinical trial enrollment, for post-HCT GVHD care based on individual patient and disease characteristics.
