Table 1. Factors that increase the risk of severe sinusoidal liver injury resulting from the conditioning regimen. Refer to Appendix 3 for abbreviations.

Liver diseases at baseline Specific conditioning regimens Concomitant drugs during conditioning therapy

Inflammatory diseases Cyclophosphamide-based Itraconazole
Chronic hepatitis B or C CY 120 mg/kg + TBI (greater risk with higher TBI dosing) Sirolimus (rapamycin)
Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis BCV (BCNU + CY + VP-16) Norethisterone
Alcoholic hepatitis BU + CY (greater risk without therapeutic drug monitoring of BU)
Fibrotic diseases Melphalan-based
Cirrhosis BU + MEL + thiotepa
Lobular fibrosis BU + MEL
Extramedullary hematopoiesis with sinusoidal fibrosis Other regimens
Cholestatic disorders BU + TBI (greater risk with higher TBI dosing)
Jaundice caused by intrahepatic cholestasis Gemtuzumab ozogamicin-containing myeloablative regimens
Past history High-dose radiolabeled antibody myeloablative regimens
Prior SOS from conventional chemotherapy
Recent exposure to gemtuzumab ozogamicin
Prior liver irradiation
Prior myeloablative hematopoietic cell transplant
