TABLE 3.

Association between select exposures with early and later onset cardiomyopathy risk among ≥1-year HCT survivors.

Exposure Before 1-year
OR (95% CI)*
After 1-year
HR (95% CI)
Anthracycline, mg/m2
 None 1.0 (ref) 1.0 (ref)
 <250 1.4 (0.5–3.6) 2.4 (1.2–4.9)
 ≥250 4.0 (1.7–9.1) 2.6 (1.3–5.2)

Chest radiotherapy
 Pre-transplant 1.3 (0.5–3.5) 0.9 (0.3–2.3)
 Total body irradiation (TBI) - 1.3 (0.7–2.6)

Autologous donor - 2.5 (1.1–5.8)

History of chronic GVHD - 1.3 (0.6–2.8)

History of post-transplant relapse - 1.7 (0.8–3.6)

Pre-transplant cardiovascular conditions
 Hypertension 4.2 (1.8–9.8) 1.8 (0.7–4.6)
 Dyslipidemia 2.2 (0.7–7.1) 1.1 (0.3–4.0)
 Diabetes 0.3 (0.05–1.3) 1.7 (0.5–5.7)

≥1-year post-transplant cardiovascular conditions
 Hypertension - 2.1 (1.1–4.1)
 Dyslipidemia - 1.6 (0.8–3.3)
 Diabetes - 2.9 (1.3–6.5)

HR, hazard ratio; OR, odds ratio

*

Logistic regression model adjusted for sex, age at and year of HCT, anthracycline dose, pre-transplant chest radiotherapy (not TBI).

Cox proportional hazards models adjusted for same covariates as logistic regression models, plus TBI, donor status, history of chronic GVHD, and history of post-transplant relapse.
