Résumé

Defibrotide is approved to treat severe veno-occlusive disease/sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (VOD/SOS) after haematopoietic cell transplantation in patients aged > 1 month in the European Union and for VOD/SOS with renal/pulmonary dysfunction post-haematopoietic cell transplantation in the United States. This meta-analysis estimated the incidence and risk of VOD/SOS after intravenous defibrotide prophylaxis using the published literature. PubMed, Embase and Web of Science were searched through 30 November 2021 for defibrotide studies in VOD/SOS "prevention" or "prophylaxis," excluding phase I studies, case reports, studies with fewer than ten patients and reviews. The search identified 733 records; 24 met inclusion criteria, of which 20 (N = 3005) evaluated intravenous defibrotide for VOD/SOS prophylaxis. Overall VOD/SOS incidence with intravenous defibrotide was 5%, with incidences of 5% in adults and 8% in paediatric patients. In eight studies with data on intravenous defibrotide prophylaxis vs controls (e.g. heparin, no prophylaxis), VOD/SOS incidence in controls was 16%. The risk ratio for developing VOD/SOS with defibrotide prophylaxis vs controls was 0.30 (95% confidence interval 0.12-0.71; p = 0.006). This analysis suggests a low incidence of VOD/SOS following intravenous defibrotide prophylaxis, regardless of age group, and a lower relative risk for VOD/SOS with defibrotide prophylaxis vs controls in patient populations at high risk of VOD/SOS.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES OBJECTIVE
Defibrotide is approved to treat severe veno-occlusive disease/sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (VOD/SOS) after haematopoietic cell transplantation in patients aged > 1 month in the European Union and for VOD/SOS with renal/pulmonary dysfunction post-haematopoietic cell transplantation in the United States. This meta-analysis estimated the incidence and risk of VOD/SOS after intravenous defibrotide prophylaxis using the published literature.
METHODS METHODS
PubMed, Embase and Web of Science were searched through 30 November 2021 for defibrotide studies in VOD/SOS "prevention" or "prophylaxis," excluding phase I studies, case reports, studies with fewer than ten patients and reviews.
RESULTS RESULTS
The search identified 733 records; 24 met inclusion criteria, of which 20 (N = 3005) evaluated intravenous defibrotide for VOD/SOS prophylaxis. Overall VOD/SOS incidence with intravenous defibrotide was 5%, with incidences of 5% in adults and 8% in paediatric patients. In eight studies with data on intravenous defibrotide prophylaxis vs controls (e.g. heparin, no prophylaxis), VOD/SOS incidence in controls was 16%. The risk ratio for developing VOD/SOS with defibrotide prophylaxis vs controls was 0.30 (95% confidence interval 0.12-0.71; p = 0.006).
CONCLUSIONS CONCLUSIONS
This analysis suggests a low incidence of VOD/SOS following intravenous defibrotide prophylaxis, regardless of age group, and a lower relative risk for VOD/SOS with defibrotide prophylaxis vs controls in patient populations at high risk of VOD/SOS.
