ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryMean Cumulative Prednisone Dose (mg/kg) Over 42 Days From the Start of TreatmentAt day 42 after initiation of treatmentThe total cumulative dose of prednisone (milligrams/kilogram) was calculated starting from the start of therapy through study day 42.
SecondaryPrednisone-associated Toxicity as Assessed by HyperglycemiaBaseline and then through 42 days after starting treatmentImpact on blood glucose (BG) control will be assessed by comparing average BG and BG-variability between patients given standard-dose and low-dose prednisone.
SecondaryPrednisone-associated Toxicity as Assessed by Invasive Infections (Bacterial, Fungal and Viral)Baseline and through 100 days of treatmentThe total number of invasive infections (bacterial, fungal and viral) occurring in patients in each group were collected.
SecondaryPrednisone-associated Toxicity as Assessed by MyopathyBaseline and then weekly until 42 days after starting treatment
Assessed by mean change from baseline to day 42 using Manual Muscle Testing measure. The degree of resistance against pressure applied by tester was measured on a 5-point scale. A score of 5 indicates the patient can hold the position against maximum to strong resistance. A score of 0 indicates the patient has no resistance against pressure. Testing included upper and lower extremities: shoulder (deltoid at 90 degrees), and hip and knee in a sitting position.
SecondaryPrednisone-associated Toxicity as Assessed by HypertensionBaseline and then through 42 days after starting treatmentThe number of different anti-hypertensive medications administered to control hypertension were collected. The mean change in the number of medications from baseline to day 42 was measured.
SecondaryPrednisone-associated Toxicity as Assessed by Quality of LifeBaseline and then every other week until 42 days after starting treatment
Patients completed the MD Anderson Symptom Inventory (MDASI), which is a quality of life questionnaire validated for oncology/transplant patients. On a 1-10 point scale, patients scored the degree of severity of symptoms or the degree of interference in feelings or function due to symptoms at baseline or in the previous week. A score of 1 indicates symptom is not present or does not interfere with feelings or function. A score of 10 indicates the symptom is as bad as you can imagine or interferes completely with feelings or function. The mean change in score from baseline to day 42 was measured.
SecondaryNon-relapse MortalityAt 12 months after the start of prednisone therapyNon-relapse mortality (NRM) is defined as death due to any cause in the absence of documented relapse/progression.
SecondaryRecurrent or Progressive MalignancyAt 12 months after the start of prednisone therapyPercentage of relapse estimated by cumulative incidence methods
SecondaryProgression to Grade III-IV Acute GVHDAt approximately 100 days after transplant
Diagnosed and graded according to standard established criteria. Measure is percent of patients with baseline scores of IIa (Group A) or IIb (Group B) who progressed to more severe GVHD (Grade III/IV). Percentage estimated by cumulative incidence methods.
SecondarySecondary Therapy for Acute GVHD Beyond PrednisoneAt approximately 100 days after transplant
This includes any intervention intended to control acute GVHD through an immunosuppressive effect from oral or parenteral administration of any systemic medication not given previously. This does not include topical therapy, an increase in the dose of glucocorticoids or the resumption of treatment after previous discontinuation or any increase in the dose of immunosuppressive medication previously administered for GVHD prophylaxis, or reinstatement of GVHD prophylaxis previously discontinued. A change in treatment from cyclosporine to tacrolimus or vice versa because of drug toxicity is not considered secondary therapy, but any change made because of uncontrolled GVHD is considered secondary therapy. Percentage is estimated by cumulative incidence methods.
SecondaryChronic Extensive GVHDAt 12 months after the start of prednisone therapyPercentage of patients with chronic extensive GVHD, estimated by cumulative incidence methods
SecondaryOverall SurvivalAt 12 months after the start of prednisone therapyPercentage of patients surviving as estimated by Kaplan-Meier.
