To the Editor: We thank the authors of the commentary on sirolimus use and risk of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in solid organ transplant recipients (SOTRs) for raising some important concerns, namely:(1) lack of information on dose,(2) lack of information on other drugs associated with SCC risk (aside from azathioprine), and (3) lack of information on tumor invasiveness and possible incomplete case capture.We did not include dose as a variable in our models because there was very little variability in dosing regimens in our SOTR cohort. The mean daily dose of sirolimus was between 1.0 and 1.5 mg/d for the majority of our exposed cohort (n= 512, 88.6%), with n= 45 (7.9%) dispensed less than 1 mg/d; and n= 21 (3.6%) dispensed more than 1.5 mg/d. Given this lack of variability, we did not have the ability to draw meaningful conclusions about dose in our analyses.
