Purpose
The usual treatment for obstructive airway disease (OAD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) , which is related to graft versus host disease (GVHD), consists of intensification of systemic immunosuppressive therapy.

- The primary endpoint is based on pulmonary function tests (PFT): the absolute variation of FEV1 after 1 month of treatment will be assessed. [ Time Frame: 1 month ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Improvement or stabilisation of FEV1; Prevalence of improvement of FEV1 by at least 200 ml and 12% at 1 month compared to baseline; Variation of FEF 25-75% and vital capacity; Quality of life measurement; Evaluation of the clinical score [ Time Frame: 1, 6 and 7 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Detailed Description:
Although it has not been evaluated prospectively, the usual treatment for obstructive airway disease (OAD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) , which is related to graft versus host disease (GVHD), consists of intensification of systemic immunosuppressive therapy. However, this treatment has a limited efficacy and is associated with a significant number of serious adverse effects, particularly infectious. Alternative treatments are therefore necessary.We have retrospectively reported clinical and functional improvement in patients with OAD following AHSCT treated with inhaled budesonide/formoterol combination.These encouraging results need to be confirmed by the present randomised, prospective double-blind trial. This study is therefore designed to evaluate the efficacy of budesonide/formoterol versus placebo in patients with moderate to severe OAD, not requiring initiation or intensification of systemic immunosuppressive therapy for extra thoracic GVHD.
