Filter by:There are rare reports regarding late neutropenua in very low birth weight preterm infants. The investigators wish to characterize it among our population, and assess its consequenses and the postnatal menagement of the infants.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of Eflapegrastim on duration of neutropenia in patients with early-stage breast cancer when administered at varying intervals following Docetaxel and Cyclophosphamide administration.
Empirical antibiotic therapy has been known to reduce the mortality and morbidity rate in neutropenic fever. Until now, ceftazidime was the first line choice of neutropenic fever. However, resistance against ceftazidime has been reported. Several countries have reported cefepime in reducing fever and shorten the length of hospitalization better than ceftazidime. This study is aimed to compare the effectivity of ceftazidime and cefepime to reduce fever and to increase the absolute neutrophils count (ANC) in the first 72 hours.
Evaluation of the efficacy and safety of Mecapegfilgrastim for the prevention of neutropenia and radiation esophagitis after hyperfractionation in patients with limited-stage small cell lung cancer
This is a 2-part study of mavorixafor in participants diagnosed with chronic neutropenia. The main goal of Part 1 (Phase 1b) is to help researchers learn more about how the investigational medicine, mavorixafor, impacts people living with chronic neutropenia (including congenital, idiopathic, and cyclic). In Part 2 (Phase 2), the safety and tolerability of chronic dosing of mavorixafor will be evaluated in a larger participant population and the impact of 6-month chronic dosing of mavorixafor on participant neutropenia.
Treatment of neutropenia of G6PC3 and Glycogenosis type 1b patients with empagliflozin
In this pilot study the feasibility of continous monitoring of health data with a small, on-skin wearable device (the Everion®, by Biovotion, Zurich) in pediatric patients under chemotherapy for cancer, is studied. Feasibility is assessed by the number of patients wearing the device on seven consecutive days for at least 18h/day, what will be measured by monitored heart rate. Study duration for each participant is 14 days.
This study aims to analyze the effects of long-acting versus short-acting granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) on the prevention febrile neutropenia (FN) in epithelial ovarian cancer patients. Patients receive platinum-based chemotherapy of 3 to 4 weeks. Patients are randomized into study group and control group. In study group, patients accept long-acting G-CSF 48 hours from the chemotherapy. While the control group accept regular or prophylactic treatment of short-acting G-CSF according to National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines. The primary end is the incidence of FN in every course of chemotherapy. 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, quality of life, and survival outcomes (progression-free survival and overall survival).
Oral and intestinal mucositis are major risk factors for the occurrence of fever during neutropenia and bloodstream infections after intensive chemo- and radiotherapy. These complications often require dose reductions or cause delay of treatment, and thereby interfere with optimal anticancer treatment. Currently, there are no effective strategies to prevent or treat mucositis and the related complications. The pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1β (IL-1β) has shown to be pivotal in the pathogenesis of mucositis and recently, it has been established in murine models that IL-1 inhibition significantly ameliorates chemotherapy-induced intestinal mucositis. The investigators recently conducted a phase IIa study (AFFECT-1, NCT03233776) studying the safety and maximum tolerated dose of anakinra, a recombinant human IL-1 receptor antagonist in adult patients with multiple myeloma receiving high-dose melphalan (HDM) in the preparation for an autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) who are at high risk for experiencing mucositis and fever during neutropenia (FN). Since treatment with anakinra has shown to be safe in this study population, the investigators will continue with a double-blind randomized placebo-controlled multicenter phase IIb trial to establish efficacy in the management of fever during neutropenia and mucositis.
This is a pharmacoeconomic research to explore the cost-effectiveness of PEG-rhG-CSF and rhG-CSF in prophylactic treatment of neutropenia in lymphoma patients. It should provide more scientific basis for clinical decision-making.
