Topefilgrastim Injection in the Treatment of High-Risk Pregnant Patients With Preeclampsia

January 26, 2026 updated by: Fang Wang

A Prospective, Controlled Study to Assess the Preliminary Efficacy and Safety of Topefilgrastim Injection in High-Risk Pregnant Patients With Preeclampsia.

This study is an open-label, prospective investigation designed to enroll 100 high-risk pregnant subjects with preeclampsia (PE). Participants will be allocated in a 2:2:1 ratio to one of three groups: the Topefilgrastim 0.5mg/biweekly group, the Topefilgrastim 1mg/biweekly group, or the control group, based on investigator judgment and patient preference. The overall study consists of three parts: a screening period, a treatment period, and a follow-up period.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Voluntarily participate in the study, be able to understand, and sign the informed consent form.
  • Aged 18 to 45 years (inclusive) at the time of signing the informed consent form.
  • Assessed as high-risk for preeclampsia at gestational weeks 11-13, defined as either:

A risk value of ≥1/100 based on the simplified Fetal Medicine Foundation (FMF) model, OR A high-risk result from serum biomarker screening (sFlt-1, PLGF, sFlt-1/PLGF ratio). (See Appendix for details)

  • Gestational weeks 11-13 at enrollment.
  • Singleton intrauterine pregnancy (confirmed by transvaginal or transabdominal ultrasound).

Exclusion Criteria:

  • History of psychiatric disorder not adequately controlled by medication.
  • Unexplained vaginal bleeding at screening.
  • Known uterine malformation.
  • Evidence of positive serology for HIV, HBV (HBsAg positive), HCV (anti-HCV antibody positive), or syphilis.
  • Known proliferative retinopathy.
  • Presence of severe organic disease or any other condition that, in the judgment of the investigator, makes the subject unsuitable for study participation.
  • Planned or current use of medications with potential drug-drug interactions with human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) analogs, such as lithium.
  • Known allergy to rhG-CSF products or their components, or allergy to recombinant human proteins/peptides derived from E. coli.
