Lipegfilgrastim in the management of chemotherapy-induced neutropenia of cancer patients.

Biologics : targets & therapy

Guariglia R, Martorelli MC, Lerose R, Telesca D, Milella MR, Musto P.

Neutropenia and febrile neutropenia (FN) are frequent and potentially fatal toxicities of myelosuppressive anticancer treatments. The introduction of granulocyte colony-stimulating factors (G-CSFs) in clinical practice has remarkably reduced the duration and severity of neutropenia, as well as the incidence...

Real-world impact of granulocyte-colony stimulating factor on febrile neutropenia.

PMID: 23737687
Curr Oncol. 2013 Jun;20(3):e171-9. doi: 10.3747/co.20.1306.

BACKGROUND: Primary prophylaxis with granulocyte colony-stimulating factors (pp-g-csf) is recommended in patients undergoing chemotherapy carrying a febrile neutropenia (fn) risk of 20% or more. In the present study, we examined clinical practice patterns and the impact of pp-g-csf on...

Myelodysplastic syndromes: a guide to treatment with epoetin and colony-stimulating factors.

BioDrugs : clinical immunotherapeutics, biopharmaceuticals and gene therapy

Geissler RG, Ganser A.

Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are clonal disorders of haemopoietic stem cells which are characterised by peripheral cytopenia and, usually, by an increased bone marrow cellularity. Transfusions of red blood cells and platelets comprise the basis of supportive care for anaemia...

Neutropenia and Neutropenic Complications in ABVD Chemotherapy for Hodgkin Lymphoma.

Advances in hematology

Adv Hematol. 2011;2011:656013. doi: 10.1155/2011/656013. Epub 2011 May 02.

A combination of Adriamycin (a.k.a. Doxorubicin), Bleomycin, Vinblastine, and Dacarbazine (ABVD) is the most commonly used chemotherapy regime for Hodgkin lymphoma. This highly effective treatment is associated with a significant risk of neutropenia. Various strategies are adopted to counter...

Canadian supportive care recommendations for the management of neutropenia in patients with cancer.

Curr Oncol. 2008 Jan;15(1):9-23. doi: 10.3747/co.2008.198.

Hematologic toxicities of cancer chemotherapy are common and often limit the ability to provide treatment in a timely and dose-intensive manner. These limitations may be of utmost importance in the adjuvant and curative intent settings. Hematologic toxicities may result...

Comparing medical cost of care for patients with metastatic breast cancer receiving taxane therapy: claims analysis.

American health & drug benefits

Force RW, Pugmire BA, Culbertson VL.
PMID: 25126321
Am Health Drug Benefits. 2010 Jul;3(4):276-84.

BACKGROUND: It has been estimated that more than $8 billion is spent annually on the management of breast cancer in the United States. The taxane chemotherapeutic agents are cornerstones in the treatment of breast cancer, yet no study has...

Haemopoietic growth factors: their role in cell development and their clinical use.

Cytotechnology

Testa NG, Dexter TM.
PMID: 22358868
Cytotechnology. 1989 Dec;2(4):259-67. doi: 10.1007/BF00364992.

Mature blood cells are derived from haemopoietic stem cells which grow and proliferate to give rise to progenitor cells more restricted in their proliferation and differentiation capacity. These in turn give rise to cells belonging to any of the...

Mobilization of hematopoietic progenitor cells with granulocyte colony stimulating factors for autologous transplant in hematologic malignancies: a single center experience.

Revista brasileira de hematologia e hemoterapia

J Indian Soc Periodontol. 2013 Jan;17(1):16-20. doi: 10.4103/0972-124X.107468.

During application of controlled orthodontic force on teeth, remodeling of the periodontal ligament (PDL) and the alveolar bone takes place. Orthodontic forces induce a multifaceted bone remodeling response. Osteoclasts responsible for bone resorption are mainly derived from the macrophages...
