Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study suggested that hydrogen has a potential as an effective and safe therapeutic agent on cGVHD.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 2

Detailed Description

The investigators will evaluate clinical response rate, time to treatment Failure (TTF), overall survival (OS), and toxicity in cGVHD patients.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Hydrogen

Patients will receive hydrogen-rich water (4mL/kg three times one day, 0.8 ppm)

Drug: Hydrogen
Patients will receive hydrogen-rich water orally (500mL three times one day, 0.6mM)
Other Names:
  • Hydrogen-rich water
  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Overall Response Rate (ORR) [12 months after date of start of Hydrogen]

      Overall Response Rate (ORR) is defined as an Objective improvement at sixth month, and includes at least 1 of the following criteria: At least 50% reduction of body surface area involved; Reduction (at least 20%) of skin sclerosis, measured by Rodnan score Improvement>1 point in functional pulmonary tests, evaluated by LFS score; >50% steroid reduction (for at least 4 weeks)

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Response Rate in each domain (RRD) [12 months after date of start of Hydrogen]

      Response rate in each domain was measured in subjects that had had initial involvement in that domain
