BACKGROUND/AIM: This study aimed was to clarify the impact of pegfilgrastim (PEG) 3.6 mg primary prophylaxis of febrile neutropenia (FN) on the average relative dose intensity (ARDI) of neoadjuvant/adjuvant FEC-100 for breast cancer.
This retrospective, single-centre cohort study including 296 patients who received FEC-100 compared PEG and non-PEG groups. The PEG group received PEG 3.6 mg as a single subcutaneous injection in each study cycle. The primary endpoint was the ARDI of FEC-100. The secondary endpoints were patient percentage of ARDI≥85%, factors associated with ARDI≥85%, and reasons for reduced ARDI.
The PEG group showed significantly higher mean ARDI (95.6% versus 90.7%, p<0.001) and patient percentage of ARDI≥85% (93.0% versus 79.9%, p=0.001). PEG was significantly associated with ARDI≥85% (p=0.009). Neutropenia and FN, the main reasons for reduced ARDI, were significantly lower in the PEG group (p<0.05).
Primary PEG 3.6 mg prophylaxis increased the ARDI of FEC-100.
背景/目的:本研究旨在阐明培格非格司亭(PEG)3.6mg 作为发热性中性粒细胞减少症(FN)一级预防对乳腺癌新辅助/辅助 FEC-100 方案平均相对剂量强度(ARDI)的影响。
这是一项回顾性、单中心队列研究,共纳入 296 例接受 FEC-100 方案治疗的患者,分为 PEG 组和非 PEG 组。PEG 组在每个研究周期接受 PEG 3.6mg 单次皮下注射。主要终点是 FEC-100 的 ARDI。次要终点是 ARDI≥85%的患者比例、与 ARDI≥85%相关的因素以及 ARDI 降低的原因。
PEG 组的平均 ARDI(95.6%比 90.7%,p<0.001)和 ARDI≥85%的患者比例(93.0%比 79.9%,p=0.001)均显著更高。PEG 与 ARDI≥85%显著相关(p=0.009)。中性粒细胞减少症和 FN 是导致 ARDI 降低的主要原因,在 PEG 组中显著较低(p<0.05)。
PEG 3.6mg 一级预防可提高 FEC-100 的 ARDI。
