Initial therapy
Dexamethasone, high-dose
Regimen #1, Cheng et al. 2003
Levels of Evidence: 125 patients enrolled
- Dexamethasone (Decadron) 40 mg PO once per day on days 1 to 4
4-day course; patients who had an initial response, but whose platelets dropped below 30,000 within 6 months received:
- Dexamethasone (Decadron) 40 mg PO once per day on days 1 to 4
- Prednisone (Sterapred) 15 mg PO once per day starting on day 5, "with gradual tapering"
Regimen #2, Mazzucconi et al. 2007 (monthly dexamethasone)
Levels of Evidence: 37 patients
- Dexamethasone (Decadron) 40 mg PO once per day on days 1 to 4
- Patients who had platelet counts of ≤20 x 109/L between cycles received Prednisone (Sterapred) 0.25 mg/kg PO once per day "between courses"
28-day cycles x 6 cycles
Regimen #3, Mazzucconi et al. 2007 (every 2 week dexamethasone)
Levels of Evidence: 95 patients
- Dexamethasone (Decadron) 40 mg PO/IV once per day on days 1 to 4
- Patients <15 years old received Dexamethasone (Decadron) 20 mg/m2 (maximum dose: 40 mg per day) PO/IV once per day on days 1 to 4
- Patients who had platelet counts of ≤30 x 109/L between cycles and/or who had bleeding related to thrombocytopenia received Dexamethasone (Decadron) 0.035 mg/kg PO once per day "between courses"
14-day cycles x 4 cycles
