- W2954638863 abstract "Background There is ongoing debate regarding the comparative effectiveness of adrenocorticotropic hormone and prednisolone in the treatment of infantile spasms. With a large cohort and extended follow-up, we set out to evaluate a protocol in which adrenocorticotropic hormone is reserved for prednisolone nonresponders. Methods The following standardized hormonal therapy protocol was adopted. Patients initially receive prednisolone (8 mg/kg/day [maximum 60 mg/day], divided in three daily doses for 14 days). Prednisolone responders taper it over 14 days, whereas prednisolone nonresponders immediately transition to natural adrenocorticotropic hormone (150 U/m2/day, divided in two daily doses for 14 days). We evaluated short-term response, defined as video-electroenecphaloagraphy-confirmed resolution of both epileptic spasms and hypsarrhythmia on day 14, without relapse for 28 additional days. We then evaluated long-term relapse and calculated the rates of sustained response at six, 12, and 18 months. Results We identified 102 children with infantile spasms who were treated with prednisolone. Prior exposure to hormonal therapy and vigabatrin was observed among 12% and 35% of patients, respectively. Sixty (59%) patients responded to prednisolone, and 13 (33%) prednisolone nonresponders then responded to adrenocorticotropic hormone. Cumulative response to prednisolone and adrenocorticotropic hormone (if needed) was higher among treatment-naive patients (84%) than among patients with prior exposure to first-line treatment (51%), with P < 0.001. Relapse was relatively common among all subgroups. Conclusion Short-term response to prednisolone was favorable and higher among treatment-naive patients. These data suggest that prednisolone is a reasonable approach to initial therapy and that adrenocorticotropic hormone exhibits substantial efficacy after prednisolone failure." @default.
