Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Part 1: Open Label Itacitinib Once Daily
During Part 1, all participants receive itacitinib 200mg once daily (open label) for 30 days. The study population will include participants receiving any approved IEC for an approved indication.
Drug: Itacitinib
Part 1: Itacitinib 200 mg once daily for 30 days. Part 2: Itacitinib 200 mg twice daily for 30 days.
Other Name: INCB039110

Drug: Immune effector cell therapy
Participants will receive IEC therapy that is approved by the health authority in the country where the study is being conducted for any approved hematologic indication.
Other Name: CAR-T cell therapy

Experimental: Part 2: Double-Blind Itacitinib Twice Daily
During Part 2, participants will be randomized to receive itacitinib 200mg or placebo twice daily for 30 days. The study population also includes participants who are receiving Yescarta for relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma or follicular lymphoma.
Drug: Itacitinib
Part 1: Itacitinib 200 mg once daily for 30 days. Part 2: Itacitinib 200 mg twice daily for 30 days.
Other Name: INCB039110

Drug: Placebo
Participants will receive placebo twice daily.

Biological: Yescarta
Eligible participants are receiving Yescarta (An infusion of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-transduced autologous T cells) for relapsed or refractory larbe B-cell lymphoma or follicular lymphoma intravenously.
Other Name: axicabtagene ciloleucel KTE-C19




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Proportion of participants who develop ≥ Grade 2 CRS [ Time Frame: Day 14 ]
    Assessed using American Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (ASBMT) CRS Consensus Grading.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Proportion of participants with immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) after IEC therapy [ Time Frame: Day 28 ]
    Assessed using the ICANS Consensus Grading. Complete response or partial response for ICANS is defined as either complete disappearance or decrease in the grade of severity as measured by ASTCT Consensus Grading for ICANS. The ASTCT grade is from 1 to 5 for ICANS with 1 being mild symptoms and 5 being severe symptoms.

  2. Duration of ICANS regardless of CRS [ Time Frame: Day 28 ]
    Assessed using the ICANS Consensus Grading.

  3. Duration of all grades of CRS [ Time Frame: Day 28 ]
    Assessed using ASBMT CRS Consensus Grading.

  4. Proportion of participants with any grade of CRS after IEC therapy [ Time Frame: 48 hours ]
    Assessed using ASBMT CRS Consensus Grading.

  5. Proportion of participants with ≥ Grade 2 CRS after first IEC therapy [ Time Frame: Day 28 ]
    Assessed using ASBMT CRS Consensus Grading.

  6. Number of treatment-emergent adverse events [ Time Frame: Day -3 through safety follow-up, up to approximately 60 days. ]
    Defined as adverse events reported for the first time or worsening of a pre-existing event after first dose of itacitinib.

  7. Number of Particpants with ≥ Grade 3 Cytopenias [ Time Frame: Through end of study, up to 90 days. ]
    Cytopenia is diagnosed with a blood test called a complete blood count (CBC). A CBC shows white blood cell, red blood cell, and platelet counts.

  8. Number of hospital admissions for participants with CRS and/or ICANS [ Time Frame: Through end of study, up to 180 days. ]
    Assessed using ASBMT CRS Consensus Grading.

  9. Duration of hospital stay for participants with CRS and/or ICANS [ Time Frame: Through end of study, up to 180 days. ]
    Assessed using ASBMT CRS Consensus Grading.

  10. Percentage of participants who were treated with tocilizumab for CRS [ Time Frame: 30 days ]
    Assessed using ASBMT CRS Consensus Grading.

  11. Percentage of participants requiring >1 dose of dexamethasone (or equivalent) for ICANS. [ Time Frame: 30 days ]
    Assessed using the ICANS Consensus Grading.
