  • Allocation: RANDOMIZED
  • Interventional Model: PARALLEL
  • Masking: NONE

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: GM-CSF
Eligible patients received subcutaneous GM-CSF 5 μg/kg per day when the first time of absolute neutrophil count [ANC] <1.5*10^9/L after chemotherapy. GM-CSF is given daily for at least 5 days and continued until the ANC reached 1.5*10^9/L for two consecutive days.
Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) is a hematopoietic CSFs that decrease the duration and severity of neutropenia for patients receiving chemotherapy. GM-CSF is a stimulator of the growth and differentiation of hematopoietic progenitor cells committed to neutrophils, monocytes or eosinophils.
Experimental: G-CSF
Eligible patients received subcutaneous G-CSF 5 μg/kg per day when the first time of absolute neutrophil count [ANC] <1.5*10^9/L after chemotherapy. G-CSF is given daily for at least 5 days and continued until the ANC reached 1.5*10^9/L for two consecutive days.
Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) is a hematopoietic CSFs that decrease the duration and severity of neutropenia for patients receiving chemotherapy. G-CSF is a relatively specific stimulator of the growth and differentiation of hematopoietic progenitor cells committed to the neutrophil lineage.
Experimental: G-CSF + GM-CSF
Eligible patients received subcutaneous a combination of GM-CSF 5 μg/kg per day and G-CSF 5 μg/kg per day when the first time of absolute neutrophil count [ANC] <1.5*10^9/L after chemotherapy. GM-CSF and G-CSF are given daily for at least 5 days and continued until the ANC reached 1.5*10^9/L for two consecutive days.
Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) are hematopoietic CSFs that decrease the duration and severity of neutropenia for patients receiving chemotherapy. GM-CSF and G-CSF share a number of biologic activities, GM-CSF seems to be more potent against fungi.
