@Sara Is it not the idea of remission without CS? that is, remisión sin corticoesteroides/remisión libre de corticoesteroides?

Thanks

You were correct but do not use "libre de" in your translation. See what Navarro says about the translation of "-free":

-free. Recomiendo evitar el calco *libre de* para traducir las construcciones inglesas con -free; en la mayor parte de los casos es preferible recurrir a la preposición española sin o anteponer al adjetivo correspondiente un prefijo negativo: ● alcohol-free beverages (bebidas sin alcohol), disease-free area (zona indemne), disease-free survival o DFS (supervivencia sin cáncer, mejor que el calco habitual *supervivencia sin enfermedad* o *SSE*; → disease 2), fat-free mass (masa magra), fat-free milk (leche desnatada), germ-free (estéril, aséptico o axénico, según el contexto), lead-free petrol (gasolina sin plomo), nuclear-free zone (zona desnuclearizada), pain-free (indoloro), progression-free survival o PFS (supervivencia sin progresión, SSP), relapse-free survival o RFS (supervivencia sin recidiva [o sin recaída], SSR), rent-free accommodation (vivienda gratuita), salt-free diet o sodium-free diet (dieta sin sal), symptom-free (asintomático).
