Pharmacologic Interventions for Fatigue in Cancer and Transplantation: A Meta-Analysis
Open accessAbstract
Background: Our objective was to determine whether, compared with control interventions, pharmacologic interventions reduce the severity of fatigue in patients with cancer or recipients of hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT). Methods: For a systematic review, we searched medline, embase, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, CINAHL, and PsychINFO for randomized trials of systemic pharmacologic interventions for the management of fatigue in patients with cancer or recipients of HSCT. Two authors independently identified studies and abstracted data. Methodologic quality was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool. The primary outcome was fatigue severity measured using various fatigue scales. Data were synthesized using random-effects models. Results: In the 117 included trials (19,819 patients), the pharmacologic agents used were erythropoietins (n = 31), stimulants (n = 19), L-carnitine (n = 6), corticosteroids (n = 5), antidepressants (n = 5), appetite stimulants (n = 3), and other agents (n = 48). Fatigue was significantly reduced with erythropoietin [standardized mean difference (SMD): −0.52; 95% confidence interval (ci): −0.89 to −0.14] and with methylphenidate (SMD: −0.36; 95% CI: −0.56 to −0.15); modafinil (or armodafinil) and corticosteroids were not effective. Conclusions: Erythropoietin and methylphenidate significantly reduced fatigue severity in patients with cancer and in recipients of HSCT. Concerns about the safety of those agents might limit their usefulness. Future research should identify effective interventions for fatigue that have minimal adverse effects.

Pharmacologic management of fatigue during stem cell transplant appears somewhat efficacious, but the primary agents used (erythropoietin and methylphenidate) carry a risk of nonserious adverse events and safety concerns.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
