Mehta and Singhal are correct in pointing out that several important contributing factors influence the development of graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) after either peripheral-blood stem-cell transplantation (PBSCT) or bone marrow transplantation (BMT). One of the best characterized risk factors for the development of GVHD is the omission of an effective GVHD prophylaxis regimen that includes methotrexate.1 Despite the lack of uniformity in methotrexate regimens in our analysis, we believe the results to be valid for several reasons.Methotrexate can be given according to several different regimens. However, the schedule of 15 mg/m2 on day +1 and 10 mg/m2 on days +3, +6, and +11 remains the standard after allogeneic transplantation. It is to be noted that this regimen was adopted by the transplant community without the benefit of a randomized trial examining the optimal duration or timing of therapy.In our original report,2 six trials utilized the standard dose schedule.3-9 Mehta and Singhal summarize the methotrexate regimens used in some of the trials in their table. However, they misrepresent the trial reported by Bacigalupo et al,10 in which methotrexate was used according to a nonstandard regimen (15 mg/m2 on day +1 and 8 mg/m2 on days +3 and +6), and the trial reported by Vigorito et al,9 in which methotrexate was used according to the standard dose schedule (C. de Souza, personal communication, 2001). Two of the trials that used the standard dose schedule demonstrated a significant increase in the risk of chronic GVHD (relative risk [RR], 1.76 and 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.26 to 2.466,7; RR, 3.65 and 95% CI, 1.75 to 7.588), while the four other studies all demonstrated trends favoring a higher incidence of chronic GVHD after PBSCT (RR range, 1.19 to 1.52, P = not significant).3-5,9 Of the five prospective randomized trials included in our original analysis, three utilized standard-dose methotrexate as GVHD prophylaxis3,5,9 while the two other trials used abbreviated courses.11-13 One of the trials using abbreviated methotrexate independently demonstrated a statistically significant increase in chronic GVHD (RR, 1.82 and 95% CI, 1.10 to 3.00),11 while all four others demonstrated a trend toward increased chronic GVHD after PBSCT (RR range, 1.19 to 1.52, P = not significant).3,5,9,12,13 Of note, a more recently published randomized trial demonstrated a significantly increased rate of chronic GVHD despite full-dose methotrexate,14 while a trend toward increased chronic GVHD was demonstrated in another trial published in abstract format that also used standard-dose methotrexate.15Kumar et al16 have demonstrated that omission of the day +11 dose of methotrexate after allogeneic BMT did not increase the rate of chronic GVHD in a retrospective study of 123 patients (39% v 37%, P = .87).16 In order to determine whether the RR increase in chronic GVHD was due to differences in methotrexate delivery as part of GVHD prophylaxis regimens, we compared RR results from separate meta-analyses stratified by methotrexate regimen. In the trials that used standard-dose methotrexate,3-9 the RR of chronic GVHD after PBSCT when compared with BMT was 1.60 (95% CI, 1.19 to 2.13, P = .002). In trials in which the day +11 methotrexate was omitted in some17 or all of the patients11-13 or in which alternate dosing schedules of methotrexate were used,10,18 the RR of chronic GVHD after PBSCT compared with BMT was 1.49 (95% CI, 1.03 to 2.17, P = .036). These results are not statistically different (P = .76). The trials in which multiple GVHD prophylaxis regimens were used were omitted for this analysis.19-22In the retrospective analysis recently published by Przepiorka et al,1 methotrexate-containing regimens were associated with a lower incidence of chronic GVHD. However, the delivered doses of methotrexate were not determined retrospectively. Furthermore, methotrexate was used in combination with tacrolimus rather than cyclosporine, and this newer combination may be more effective for prevention of GVHD in both the related and unrelated setting.23,24 Within the individual trials we examined, PBSCT and BMT groups received similar GVHD prophylaxis regimens composed of cyclosporine and methotrexate. Because differential or incremental benefits of increased doses of methotrexate have not been demonstrated to exist between peripheral-blood stem-cell or bone marrow grafts despite increased CD3+ and CD34+ cell counts with peripheral-blood stem cells, we felt it was appropriate to pool the relative risks from the individual trials in the meta-analysis.Individual trials are often underpowered to detect small changes in GVHD outcome. Thirteen of the 14 trials we examined showed evidence of increased chronic GVHD after PBSCT when compared with BMT. However, only a few were able to independently demonstrate this statistically. The findings from our meta-analysis support the notion that the incidence of chronic GVHD is greater after PBSCT when compared with BMT.1.
