About

A recent meta-analysis involving 3753 patients treated with corticosteroids notes that the population with the highest prevalence of biological IS (68%) is onco-hematology. However, it is also the least studied population with no recent and significant prevalence study. A recent multicenter study including patients followed up oncology who received dexamethasone for antiemetic purposes at cumulative doses well below the doses used in Hematology, objective a prevalence of biological IS estimated at 16% at 3 months from the start of chemotherapy. The introduction of a substitution had led to an objective improvement in the quality of life estimated by EORTC QLQ-C30.

Full description

A recent meta-analysis involving 3753 patients treated with corticosteroids notes that the population with the highest prevalence of biological IS (68%) is onco-hematology. However, it is also the least studied population with no recent and significant prevalence study. A recent multicenter study including patients followed up oncology who received dexamethasone for antiemetic purposes at cumulative doses well below the doses used in Hematology, objective a prevalence of biological IS estimated at 16% at 3 months from the start of chemotherapy. The introduction of a substitution had led to an objective improvement in the quality of life estimated by EORTC QLQ-C30.

Expected results are prevalence rate of biological adrenal insufficiency between 15 and 20% with improvement of the quality of life in the 2 months post-chemotherapy by Hydrocortisone supplementation
