Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine whether low-doses alemtuzumab and rituximab combination are effective in the treatment of chronic graft-versus-host disease GVHD after first-line therapy failure
Detailed Description: Graft-versus-host disease GVHD is the most common long-term complication in patients who underwent allogeneic transplantation First-line therapy for chronic GVHD is based on immunosuppressive agents usually cyclosporine and corticosteroids achieving satisfactory response in around 30 of patients There is no ideal second-line treatment for chronic GVHD however numerous studies have been published with therapeutic options such as alemtuzumab anti-CD52 and rituximab anti-CD20

This is a prospective longitudinal nonrandomized study in which alemtuzumab and rituximab will be administered at low-doses to patients with refractory chronic GVHD Clinical response will be evaluated based on the Working Group Report 2006 published by the National Institute of Health Consensus Follow-up sessions will be weekly for four weeks every two weeks until achieve response and finally every four weeks
