Therapy for chronic graft-versus-host disease: a randomized trial comparing cyclosporine plus prednisone versus prednisone alone.
Results of previous studies have suggested that transplantation-related mortality among patients with chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) may be reduced by combined treatment with cyclosporine (CSP) and prednisone rather than by prednisone alone. In a randomized trial, we assessed the efficacy of cyclosporine plus prednisone versus prednisone alone as initial therapy for chronic GHVD among...
متن کاملEffects of Rapamycin Combined with Low Dose Prednisone in Patients with Chronic Immune Thrombocytopenia
We conducted this randomized trial to investigate the efficacy and safety of rapamycin treatment in adults with chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). Eighty-eight patients were separated into the control (cyclosporine A plus prednisone) and experimental (rapamycin plus prednisone) groups. The CD4⁺CD25⁺CD127(low) regulatory T (Treg) cells level, Foxp3 mRNA expression, and the relevant cytokines...
متن کاملWhat role for prednisone in prevention of acute graft-versus-host disease in patients undergoing marrow transplants?
One hundred forty-seven consecutive patients with leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, or aplastic anemia were treated by marrow grafts from genotypically HLA-identical siblings (n = 122) or HLA-haploidentical family members (n = 25). Haploidentical recipients differed from their donors for no more than one HLA locus on the nonshared haplotype. All were given postgrafting immunosuppression with ...
متن کاملSleep, fatigue and quality of life in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) and Juvenile Dermatomyositis (JDM)
Fatigue was related to prednisone and methotrexate use as reported by patients and parents. Conclusion Sleep disturbance and fatigue are prevalent among children with different rheumatic diseases. Sleep disturbance and fatigue are strongly related to increases in pain and decreases in quality of life. Strategies aimed at improving sleep should be studied as possible ways of improving quality of...
متن کاملInitial treatment of idiopathic nephrotic syndrome in children: prednisone versus prednisone plus cyclosporine A: a prospective, randomized trial.
Previous studies of the Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Pädiatrische Nephrologie in children with steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome have shown that the length of initial prednisone therapy has an impact on the subsequent relapse rate. The aim of this randomized, prospective, multicenter study was to reduce the number of relapses further by increasing the initial immunosuppression: Patients with an i...
