Toward optimization of cyclosporine concentration target to prevent acute graft‐versus‐host disease following myeloablative allogeneic stem cell transplant
Bibliographic record
Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Despite the common use of cyclosporine (CsA) for acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) prophylaxis following allogeneic stem cell transplant, the optimal CsA trough target remains unknown. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Here, we report on outcomes of adult patients following myeloablative conditioning to identify an optimal CsA trough target and characterize the most relevant timeframe post-transplant for CsA trough targeting to minimize aGVHD. We retrospectively reviewed 399 consecutive patients who underwent first peripheral blood allogeneic stem cell transplant for hematological malignancies between January 2009 and December 2018. RESULTS: In the unadjusted and adjusted analyses, the incidence of grades 2-4 aGVHD was significantly higher among patients with an average CsA trough concentration <250 mcg/L compared to patients with an average CsA trough concentration ≥250 mcg/L during days 15-28 post-transplant (31.5% versus 18.8%, P = 0.037), with an odds ratio (OR) of 1.97 (95% confidence interval 1.04-3.71). In contrast, no correlations between CsA trough concentration and relapse, non-relapse mortality and overall survival was found. CONCLUSION: In conclusion, early post-transplant CsA trough concentrations are an important factor in the prophylaxis against aGVHD. Our findings suggest that CsA trough concentrations should be maximized between days 15-28 post-myeloablative transplant.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
