Defibrotide in the treatment of hepatic veno-occlusive disease
Hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD), also known as sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS), represents the most frequent complication in patients in early phase following hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT). In its severe form, VOD/SOS can be associated with multiorgan failure and with a mortality rate >80% by day +100. Defibrotide (DF) (a mixture of 90% single-stranded phosphodiester...
متن کاملSafety and efficacy of defibrotide for the treatment of severe hepatic veno-occlusive disease.
Hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD), also known as sinusoidal obstruction syndrome, is a potentially life-threatening complication of chemotherapeutic conditioning used in preparation for hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (SCT). VOD may occur in up to 62% of patients undergoing SCT, with onset generally within the first month after SCT. In severe cases, 100-day mortality is in excess of ...
متن کاملAngiogenesis alteration by defibrotide: implications for its mechanism of action in severe hepatic veno-occlusive disease.
Defibrotide (DF) is a mixture of porcine-derived single-stranded phosphodiester oligonucleotides (9-80-mer; average, 50-mer) that has been successfully used to treat severe hepatic veno-occlusive disease (sVOD) with multiorgan failure (MOF) in patients who have received cytotoxic chemotherapy in preparation for bone marrow transplantation. However, its mechanism of action is unknown. Herein, we...
متن کاملDefibrotide for Prevention and Treatment of Veno-Occlusive Disease in Adults: Single-Center Experience
Background: Hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD) has been reported at a rate up to 50% following intensive conditioning regimens used in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT). Studies on the prophylactic effect of defibrotide to prevent hepatic VOD in adults are rare. Purpose: The research presented here aimed to evaluate whether propylactic defibrotide use can reduce incid...
متن کاملHepatic veno-occlusive disease (sinusoidal obstruction syndrome) after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
Hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD), increasingly referred to as sinusoidal obstruction syndrome, is a well-recognized complication of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and contributes to considerable morbidity and mortality. In the Western Hemisphere, VOD, classified as a conditioning-related toxicity, is most commonly caused by stem cell transplantation. VOD has been described after al...
