Zusammenfassung
Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is still associated with significant morbidity and mortality First-line treatment of cGVHD is based on steroids of I mg/kg/day of prednisone The role of calcineurin inhibitors remains controversial especially in patients with low risk for mortality (normal platelets counts) whereas patients with low ...
Zusammenfassung
Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is still associated with significant morbidity and mortality First-line treatment of cGVHD is based on steroids of I mg/kg/day of prednisone The role of calcineurin inhibitors remains controversial especially in patients with low risk for mortality (normal platelets counts) whereas patients with low platelets at diagnosis and/or high risk for steroid toxicity may be treated upfront with the combination of prednisone and a calcineurin inhibitor Additional systemic immuno uppressive agents like thalidomide mycophenolic acid and azathio prine failed to improve treatment results in the primary treatment of cGVHD and are in part associated with higher morbidity and in the case of azathioprine with higher mortality Despite advances in diagnosis of cGVHD as well as supportive care half of the patients fail to achieve a long lasting response to first line treatment and infectious morbidity continues to be significant Therefore immunomodulatory interventions with low infectious morbidity and mortality such as photopheresis need urgent evaluation in clinical trials Beside systemic immunosuppression the use of topical immunosuppressive interventions may improve local response rates and may be used as the only treatment in mild localized organ manifestations of cGVHD Biol Blood Marrow Transplant 16 1611-1028 (2010) (C) 2010 American Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation
