A randomized study of cyclosporine and methotrexate with or without methylprednisolone for the prevention of graft-versus-host disease: Improved long-term survival with triple prophylaxis
Cancer Nov 10, 2017
Ruutu T, et al. - In this randomized study of cyclosporine and methotrexate with or without methylprednisolone for the prevention of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), researchers performed a long-term follow-up to discover possible late effects of the intensified GVHD prophylaxis.

The group not given MP indicated marked late nonrecurrence mortality. The addition of corticosteroid seemed to cause no adverse late effects.
