Study summary

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is burdened with a high morbidity and mortality rates. Graft versus host disease (GVHD) is the clinical manifestation of an immune conflict. The expression of GVHD in the bronchioles is responsible for bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS), defined by the appearance of an obstructive ventilatory disorder. BOS may affect up to 10% of allogeneic transplant recipients. Repeated aggression-repair phenomena of the bronchial epithelium lead to an irreversible fibrous remodeling. The management of BOS remains a therapeutic challenge. A number of patients worsen their ventilatory disorder despite the available treatments and progress to obstructive respiratory failure complicated by repeated bronchial exacerbations. When the patient is far from the allograft and in the absence of any sign of active extrathoracic GVHD, the mechanisms of aggravation of the ventilatory disorder are equivocal. It seems more likely that the bronchial disease evolves on its own due to a persistent local inflammation without any immunological conflict. In this case, it would be reasonable to model the management on that of severe bronchial diseases for which the logic of cortisone sparing is now permitted by the arrival of targeted biotherapies.

Since 2006, the therapeutic arsenal of bronchial inflammatory pathologies, mainly asthma, has been enriched with the class of targeted biotherapies. These therapies, targeting IgE (omalizumab), Th2 cytokines IL-5, IL-4, IL-13 (mepolizumab, benralizumab, dupilumab) and more recently the cytokine derived from the bronchial epithelium TSLP (tezepelumab), have shown effectiveness in reducing bronchial exacerbations, improving quality of life and reducing dependence on corticosteroids. TSLP is an alarmin that reflects bronchial epithelial involvement.

The objective of this study is to test the performance of an anti-TSLP biotherapy (tezepelumab) in the reduction of bronchial exacerbations in alloHSCT recipients suffering from obstructive bronchial disorders not supposed to be still related to an active GVHD.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(7)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

FEV1

From a breathing test (spirometry): how much air you can blow out in the first second. Often given as a percentage of what is expected for your age, height and sex.

Corticosteroids (steroids)

Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.

Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.

Immunosuppression

A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.

Read whether the line is about a condition or about medicines, and which medicines and doses it means.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

Excipients

The other ingredients in a medicine besides the active drug, such as fillers, colours or preservatives.

GVHD (graft-versus-host disease)

After a transplant from a donor, the donor’s immune cells attack the recipient’s body, often the skin, gut or liver.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Started Jun 2026 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Jan 2029, 31 months after the start.

Of 38 non-industry phase 2 interventional studies under Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome, half reached primary completion within 43 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 27 and three quarters within 70. This study's planned 31 months is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 63 studies reached it within 35 months; a quarter within 23 and three quarters within 58.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Aug 18, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
