Active clinical trials for "Neutropenia"

This study aims to analyze the effects of long-acting granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) on the prevention febrile neutropenia (FN) in gynecologic cancer patients. Patients all accepted platinum-based chemotherapy 3-4 weeks once per course. The primary end is the incidence of FN in every course of chemotherapy. After the chemotherapy, patients accepted long-acting G-CSF and/or short-acting G-CSF. The secondary ends include: the incidences of myelosuppression, doses of G-CSF and its expenses, visits to outpatient and emergency clinics, adverse events related to G-CSF.

This study evaluates the administration of beta-lactam antibiotics in extended infusion in hematological patients with febrile neutropenia after 5 days of treatment. The beta-lactam antibiotics analyzed are the following: piperacillin-tazobactam, cefepime and meropenem. Half of patients will receive the antibiotic in intermittent infusion, while the other half will receive it in extended infusion.

A Prospective, open, randomized, controlled clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of PEG-rhG-CSF(PEGylated recombinant human granulocyte stimulating factor injection) in reducing neutropenia during TP(docetaxel+cisplatin) regiment simultaneous radiochemotherapy and adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with cervical cancer

The aim of this study is to describe in real-life conditions the determinants of use of GCSF (Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor) Nivestim® in primary or secondary prophylaxis and in patients receiving chemotherapy for solid tumour according to the chemotherapy context: adjuvant or metastatic setting.

The purpose of this study is to examine the safety,tolerability,pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of Pegfilgrastim in patients with chemotherapy-induced neutropenia.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Biological therapies use different ways to stimulate the immune system and stop cancer cells from growing. Combining chemotherapy with bone marrow transplantation may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy drugs and kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of different treatment regimens in treating patients who have acute myeloid leukemia.

Neutropenic fever is a life threatening condition that is not rare in patients suffering from hematologic disorders, and of paramount importance to early and effective treatment. In this trial we concentrate on hospitalized patients with hematologic malignancies who develop neutropenic fever. In recent years, several studies were conducted to examine possible changes in the conventional empirical treatment, assuming that administration of the antibiotics in a prolonged infusion would allow for a greater fT > MIC that will lead to a better efficacy. These studies were carried out in different populations and there is only limited information about the importance of continuous infusion therapy in patients with hematologic diseases with neutropenic fever. Research goals: The main goal is to compare between two groups of hematologic patients with neutropenic fever, The first group will receive antibiotic therapy in extended infusion, and the second (control) group will receive the treatment in a fixed time.

This study will assess the Efficacy and Safety of different doses of PEG-rhG-CSF and a single-dose of G-CSF in Preventing Chemotherapy-induced Neutropenia.

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of pegteograstim on chemotherapy-induced neutropenia in children with solid tumors

The study is a nationwide, multicenter, open label, randomized controlled trial. A target population of 220 children in treatment for cancer with neutropenic fever and a neutrophil count below 0.5 × 10⁹ cells/L with expected duration for more than 7 days will be recruited during the first 48 hours of antibiotic treatment (24 months inclusion period). They will be randomized 1:1 as follows: Experimental group: Discontinuation of antibiotics, despite neutrophil count below 0.5 × 10⁹ cells/L, after 48 hours of apyrexia and clinical stability Control group: Discontinuation of antibiotics when neutrophil count is equal to or above 0.5 × 10⁹ cells/L and the child is afebrile and clinically stable (up to maximum of 14 days after apyrexia and clinical stability). Primary endpoint is the number of days without antibiotic treatment in 28 days after treatment initiation. Secondary endpoints are crude mortality, severe adverse events, days with relapsing fever, and alterations of the microbiome.
