Brief Summary:
This research study is evaluating the effectiveness of topical sirolimus combined with topical steroid therapy, as a possible treatment for oral cGVHD.
Detailed Description:
Topical steroid therapy can be effective in managing oral cGVHD symptoms. However, a certain proportion of participants will not experience an adequate response to topical steroids and continue to have some degree of discomfort. Sirolimus is a non-steroidal immunosuppressive medication that has demonstrated efficacy in the management of cGVHD. Based on this, it is believed that a topical formulation applied inside the mouth may also demonstrate efficacy on a localized basis.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of topical sirolimus as a swish and spit solution for the treatment of oral cGVHD in participants that have not had an adequate clinical response to topical steroid therapy alone.
