PEG-rhG-CSF in Patients With Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma Receiving Chemotherapy to Prevent Neutropenia

December 15, 2016 updated by: Wang Xin, Shandong Provincial Hospital
Neutropenia is one of the most frequent adverse effects of chemotherapy, and the main factor to limit the dosage and the continuation of chemotherapy. The PEG-rhG-CSF has increased plasma half-life, and prolonged efficacy in compare with rhG-CSF. The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of PEG-rhG-CSF in preventing neutropenia following chemotherapy in patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Detailed Description

Neutropenia is a common clinical complication of chemotherapy in cancer patients. It is an important factor that delays the course of standard treatments in patients. Recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rhG-CSF) is an effective drug for the treatment of chemotherapy-induced neutropenia. However, for patients with neutropenia, multiple rhG-CSF treatments are usually required. This is likely to extend the antitumor treatment period and increase physical and mental stress in patients. Pegylated recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (PEG-rhG-CSF) is rhG-CSF chemically modified by a single methoxy polyethylene glycol group; it is able to alleviate neutropenia with a single dose. The aim of the present study was to determine the safety and effectiveness of preventive treatment with pegylated recombinant human granulocyte colony stimulating factor (PEG-rhG-CSF) on concurrent chemotherapy-induced neutropenia and to provide a rational basis for its clinical application. Therefore, the investigators designed the multi-center, open-label,randomized controlled clinical study and aimed to compare the efficacy and safety between PEG-rhG-CSF and rhG-CSF in non-Hodgkin lymphoma receiving chemotherapy.
