Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryOverall Response Rate (ORR) to Acute Graft-versus-Host Disease (GVHD) TreatmentAt Day 28
The overall response is defined as having a CR or PR at Day 28, along with: being alive, free of any next-line GVHD therapy, and free of escalation of prednisone-equivalent steroid dose to 2.5 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg)/day or more. The percentage of participants with CR or PR is reported here. Wilson score confidence intervals (CIs) are reported here as a measure of dispersion. The CR was defined as a score of 0 for the GVHD staging in all evaluable organs. The PR was defined as an improvement in one or more organs involved with GVHD symptoms without progression in others. Acute GVHD was graded and assessed for response based on Harris (Mount Sinai Acute GVHD International Consortium \[MAGIC\]) criteria (stage 0, 1, 2, 3, 4) for skin, liver, upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract, and lower GI tract. Participants who had an escalation of prednisone-equivalent steroid dose to 2.5 mg/kg/day or higher were classified as non-responders (NR).
SecondaryDuration of Response (DOR)Up to 12 months
The DOR was defined as time from the Day 28 response (CR or PR) until the first of the following events occurs: progression of acute GVHD, death, any next-line GVHD therapy, or escalation of prednisone-equivalent steroids to greater than or equal to (\>=) 2.5 mg/kg/day. Wald CIs are reported here as a measure of dispersion.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Non-relapse Mortality (NRM) EventAt 6 and 12 months
An event of NRM was death without prior evidence of relapse/progression of the primary disease, where relapse/progression was treated as a competing risk. Cumulative incidence of NRM at 6 and 12 months post-randomization is reported here for this outcome measure.
SecondaryNumber of Overall and Progression-free Survival EventsAt 6 and 12 monthsAn event for overall survival (OS) was death from any cause, while an event for progression-free survival (PFS) was death from any cause or relapse/progression of the primary disease.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With GVHD-free SurvivalAt Day 56
GVHD-free survival was defined as participants being alive, free of acute or chronic GVHD, and free of any next-line GVHD therapy or escalation of steroids to \>=2.5 mg/kg/day prednisone or equivalent for treatment of GVHD.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With ResponseAt Day 7, 14, 21, 28, 56, and 86
The percentage of participants with CR, PR (including subset with very good partial response \[VGPR\]), and treatment failure (TF). The designation of TF consisted of participants with NR, mixed response (MR) or progression. The initiation of additional systemic (next-line) GVHD therapies, escalation of prednisone equivalent steroid dose to \>= 2.5 mg/kg/day, or death from any cause prior to the assessment timepoint was also considered a TF. Simultaneous Goodman CIs are provided for category proportions for each arm at each assessment time.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Response Allowing for Approved Next-line TherapyAt Day 7, 14, 21, 28, 56, and 86
The percentage of participants with CR, PR (including subset with VGPR), and TF allowing for treatment with next-line therapy. The designation of TF consisted of participants with NR, MR, or progression. The escalation of prednisone-equivalent steroid dose to \>= 2.5 mg/kg/day or death from any cause prior to the assessment timepoint was also considered a TF. Simultaneous Goodman CIs are provided for category proportions for each arm at each assessment time.
SecondaryIncidence of Grade 2 to 3 Systemic InfectionsUp to 90 days (including 30 days after last dose of study drug)
The cumulative incidence of Grade 2 to 3 systemic infections. Grade 2 to 3 systemic infections were defined according to the Blood and Marrow Transplant Clinical Trials Network (BMT CTN) Manual of Procedures.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Grade 3 to 5 Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)Up to 30 days after the last dose of study drugThe incidence of Grade 3 to 5 TEAEs (per Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events \[CTCAE\] Version 5.0). Wilson score CIs are reported here as a measure of dispersion.
SecondaryCumulative Incidence of Chronic GVHDAt 6 and 12 months
Chronic GVHD was defined per National Institutes of Health (NIH) Consensus Criteria. Diagnosis of chronic GVHD of any severity (mild, moderate, or severe) was considered an event for this outcome measure, where death before cGVHD was treated as a competing risk.
