Chronic graft-vs-host disease (cGVHD) is a common complication and a major cause of morbidity and mortality following allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. It is primarily characterized by chronic inflammation and fibrosis involving multiple organs. Firstline treatment with steroids with or without calcineurin inhibitors for cGVHD is well established; however, a significant number of patients develop steroid-refractory/resistant cGVHD (SR-cGVHD). Subsequent treatment for SR-cGVHD varies widely, but recent advances include the approval of several medications specifically for this indication, offering new opportunities to improve the prognosis in this challenging-to-treat condition...

Immunology and Immunopharmacology courses offer multiple opportunities to bridge didactic and theoretical exposition to "hands-on" practice and application. In the United States, the Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) is the entry-level degree to practice as a pharmacist. In a majority of the four-year PharmD programs, Immunology is taught in the first two professional years, followed by pharmacotherapeutic applications in the third year, while students are on clinical rotations in the final year. Student readiness for clinical rotations and patient-centered care is critical though difficult to inculcate, especially from the perspective of their ability to integrate foundational science knowledge with practice...
