Filgrastim or Pegfilgrastim in Preventing Neutropenia in Women Receiving

Status Active, not recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

RATIONALE: Colony-stimulating factors, such as filgrastim or pegfilgrastim, may increase the number of immune cells found in bone marrow or peripheral blood and may help a person's immune system recover from the side effects of chemotherapy. It is not yet known whether filgrastim or pegfilgrastim is more effective than standard treatment in preventing neutropenia in women who are receiving adjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer.

PURPOSE: Randomized phase IV trial to compare the effectiveness of filgrastim or pegfilgrastim with that of standard treatment in preventing neutropenia in women who are receiving chemotherapy after undergoing surgery for breast cancer.

Clinical Trial Description

OBJECTIVES:

- Determine the efficacy of filgrastim (G-CSF) or pegfilgrastim as secondary prophylaxis versus standard management after the first neutropenic event in maintaining dose-intensity of adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with early breast cancer.

- Determine the proportion of patients who experience at least one neutropenic event.

OUTLINE: This is a randomized, multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to age (60 and under vs over 60) and participating center.

Patients receive chemotherapy as per local practice. After the first neutropenic event, patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

- Arm I: Patients receive filgrastim (G-CSF) subcutaneously (SC) for 7 days beginning 2 days after the final dose in a course of adjuvant chemotherapy (e.g., beginning on day 3 for a course of chemotherapy administered on day 1 only OR beginning on day 10 for a course of chemotherapy administered on days 1 and 8) OR a single dose of pegfilgrastim SC administered approximately 24 hours after chemotherapy that is administered on day 1 only.

- Arm II: Patients receive standard conservative management. Patients are followed for up to 10 years.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 400 patients will be accrued for this study within 7 years. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
