Injection Regimen Trial of PEG-rhG-CSF During Breast Cancer Chemotherapy

The purpose of this study is to try to find a better injection regimen (including time and dose) of PEG-rhG-CSF, which is supposed to better prevent bone marrow suppression and/or FN in breast cancer patients who receive chemotherapy.

  • No previous radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
  • No history of serious systemic disease.
  • KPS≥70.
  • White blood cell count> 3.5 × 10 ^ 9 / L, neutrophil count> 1.8 × 10 ^ 9 / L, platelet count> 100 × 10 ^ 9 / L, hemoglobin> 9 g / dl.

Exclusion criteria

  • Received systemic or local treatment for tumors, including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and endocrine therapy.
  • A history of malignant tumors within 5 years (except curable skin basal cell carcinoma and cervical carcinoma in situ).
  • The patient has been enrolled in other clinical trials or used other study drugs 30 days before enrollment in this study.
  • Accompanied by uncontrolled lung disease, severe infection, active gastrointestinal ulcer need treatment, coagulopathy, severe uncontrolled diabetes, connective tissue disease or bone marrow function suppression, and other diseases, can not tolerate chemotherapy-related treatments.
  • Two-dimensional echocardiography detection LVEF <55%.
  • Severe cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases within the first 6 months of randomization (eg unstable angina, chronic heart failure, uncontrollable hypertension> 150/90 mmHg, myocardial infarction, or cerebrovascular accident).

  • No personal freedom and independent civil capacity.
  • The investigator determined that the patient could not obtain long-term follow-up data (due to unavailability or serious concomitant diseases).

Treatment and study plan

Day 7 regimen

Drug

patients received a single dose of 6mg of PEG-rhG-CSF(pegfilgrastim), as a single subcutaneous injection on day 7 after chemotherapy. If FN occurs in the experimental group and the control group, reduce the dose of chemotherapy in the next course of treatment, timely change the chemotherapy regimen, and closely monitor to ensure patient safety. Record the results of routine blood follow-up and temperature curves of patients at different time periods. If WBC >= 15 x 10^9/L in the first chemotherapy cycle, then 3mg PEG-rhG-CSF will be used in the second chemotherapy cycle.

Day 3 regimen

Drug

patients received a single dose of 6mg of PEG-rhG-CSF(pegfilgrastim), as a single subcutaneous injection on day 3 after chemotherapy. If FN occurs in the experimental group and the control group, reduce the dose of chemotherapy in the next course of treatment, timely change the chemotherapy regimen, and closely monitor to ensure patient safety. Record the results of routine blood follow-up and temperature curves of patients at different time periods. If WBC >= 15 x 10^9/L in the first chemotherapy cycle, then 3mg PEG-rhG-CSF will be used in the second chemotherapy cycle.

Primary outcomes

  1. the rates of grade III/IV neutropenia during the first and second chemotherapy cycle

    Time frame: up to 9 weeks

    grade III or IV neutropenia (ANC < 1x 10^9/L or 0.5 x 10^9/L)

  2. the rates of FN during the first and second chemotherapy cycle

    Time frame: up to 9 weeks

    the occurrent rate of FN(FN:Body temperature ≥38.3°C or ≥38.0°C continued for 1 h, with neutrophil count <500/mcl or neutrophil count <1000/mcl, but expected to drop to <500/ mcl after 48 hours .)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Proportion of patients with down-regulated dosage of PEG-rhG-CSF from 6mg to 3mg

    Time frame: up to 9 weeks

    If WBC >= 10 x 10^9/L in the first chemotherapy cycle, then 3mg PEG-rhG-CSF will be used in the second chemotherapy cycle

  2. Adverse reactions after injection of PEG-rhG-CSF during first and second chemotherapy cycle

    Time frame: up to 9 weeks
