IMPORTANCE: Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis (SJS/TEN) are
rare but severe adverse reactions with high mortality. There is no evidence-based
treatment, but various systemic immunomodulating therapies are used. OBJECTIVES:
To provide an overview on possible immunomodulating treatments for SJS/TEN and
estimate their effects on mortality compared with supportive care. DATA SOURCES:
A literature search was performed in December 2012 for articles published in
MEDLINE, MEDLINE Daily, MEDLINE Inprocess, Web of Science, EMBASE, Scopus, and
the Cochrane Library (Central) from January 1990 through December 2012, and
updated in December 2015, in the English, French, Spanish, and German languages
looking for treatment proposals for SJS/TEN. Other sources were screened
manually. STUDY SELECTION: Initially, 157 randomized and nonrandomized studies on
therapies (systemic immunomodulating therapies or supportive care) for SJS/TEN
were selected. DATA EXTRACTION AND SYNTHESIS: Relevant data were extracted from
articles. Authors were contacted for further information. Finally, 96 studies
with sufficient information regarding eligibility and adequate quality scores
were considered in the data synthesis. All steps were performed independently by
2 investigators. Meta-analyses on aggregated study data (random-effects model)
and individual patient data (IPD) (logistic regression adjusted for confounders)
were performed to assess therapeutic efficacy. In the analysis of IPD, 2
regression models, stratified and unstratified by study, were fitted. MAIN
OUTCOMES AND MEASURES: Therapy effects on mortality were expressed in terms of
odds ratios (ORs) with 95% CIs. RESULTS: Overall, 96 studies (3248 patients) were
included. Applied therapies were supportive care or systemic immunomodulating
therapies, including glucocorticosteroids, intravenous immunoglobulins,
cyclosporine, plasmapheresis, thalidomide, cyclophosphamide, hemoperfusion, tumor
necrosis factor inhibitors, and granulocyte colony-stimulating factors.
Glucocorticosteroids were associated with a survival benefit for patients in all
3 analyses but were statistically significant in only one (aggregated data: OR,
0.5; 95%% CI, 0.3-1.01; IPD, unstratified: OR, 0.7; 95% CI, 0.5-0.97; IPD,
stratified: OR, 0.8; 95% CI, 0.4-1.3). Despite the low patient size, cyclosporine
was associated with a promising significant result in the only feasible analysis
of IPD (unstratified model) (OR, 0.1; 95% CI, 0.0-0.4). No beneficial findings
were observed for other therapies, including intravenous immunoglobulins.
CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: Although all analyses, including the unstratified
model, had limitations, glucocorticosteroids and cyclosporine were the most
promising systemic immunomodulating therapies for SJS/TEN. Further evaluation in
prospective studies is required. However, this work provides a comprehensive
overview on proposed systemic immunomodulating treatments for SJS/TEN, which is
of great relevance for treating physicians.
