This study is enrolling people who have developed lung problems (called Bronchiolitis Obliterans or BO) after hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). BO is a type of lung injury after HSCT due to graft versus host disease. While BO is uncommon after HSCT, when BO occurs it is often diagnosed late in patients, when lung injury is hard to treat and can be irreversible, leading to long-term lung disease or even death.

The purpose of this study is to find out more about a drug called ruxolitinib (the "study drug") as an early treatment for lung injury and BO after HSCT.
