Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This trial collects clinical data and blood samples to predict the quality of response to specific treatments in patients with chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) who are about to start a new therapy. Collecting and analyzing clinical data and blood samples from patients with cGVHD before and after treatment initiation may help doctors identify changes that may predict treatment response.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

OUTLINE: This is an observational study.

Patients complete questionnaires over 10 minutes about physical symptoms, activity level, and emotional well-being and have their medical records reviewed at baseline, 1, 3, and 6 months after starting index treatment, and at start of a new systemic treatment. Patients also undergo collection of blood samples over 1-2 minutes at baseline and at 1 month after starting index treatment, or at a treatment change visit if new therapy has not started.
