    A 12-year-old girl developed Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute myeloid leukemia due to therapy-related myelodysplastic syndrome with monosomy 7 following neuroblastoma treatment. She underwent allogenic bone marrow transplantation from a human leukocyte antigens-DR1 locus-mismatched unrelated donor. However, on day 49 post transplantation, she presented with diarrhea due to gastrointestinal acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD), and treatments with prednisolone, budesonide rectal foam, and human mesenchymal stem cells were ineffective. Therefore, vedolizumab was administered from day 100, which improved the symptoms from gut stage 3 to gut stage 1. Consequently, prednisolone was withdrawn without any serious adverse effects. However, the symptoms worsened to gut stage 3 again; therefore, ruxolitinib was administered to achieve complete remission. Vedolizumab exhibits gut-selective action without systemic immunosuppressive activity. Hence, vedolizumab administration before other systemic immunosuppressive agents may be recommended in patients with steroid-refractory gastrointestinal aGVHD. Thus far, only a few reports have been published regarding the administration of vedolizumab and ruxolitinib for steroid-refractory gastrointestinal aGVHD in children. Further evidence should be obtained from patients treated with vedolizumab and ruxolitinib to confirm their effectiveness for pediatric steroid-refractory gastrointestinal aGVHD.
