Itacitinib for the Treatment Steroid Refractory Immune Related Adverse Events Arising From Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors

Category Primary study
Registry of Trialsclinicaltrials.gov
Year 2024
This phase II trial tests how well itacitinib works in in patients with immune related adverse events (irAEs) arising from immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) that do not respond to steroids (steroid refractory). Steroids are the usual treatment for these side effects. However, sometimes steroids do not improve or fix the side effects. Giving itacitinib may be effective in treating patients with known or suspected problems coming from ICIs, that do not resolve or improve with steroids, by reducing the patients immune system response that can cause the irAEs.
