-specific, evidence-based guidelines and clinical pathways to standardize prescribing is not only feasible but necessary. Examples of highly used pathways in patients with cancer include the management of fever and neutropenia, antifungal prophylaxis and treatment

Because of prolonged neutropenia and severe immunosuppression, patients with hematologic malignancies (HMs) and hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) recipients are at high risk for invasive fungal infections (IFIs), which are associated with

indications as filgrastim: to treat patients with nonmyeloid malignancies receiving myelosuppressive chemotherapy associated with a clinically significant incidence of febrile neutropenia (FN); patients with acute myeloid leukemia receiving induction or

-free survival and overall survival data are not mature. Serious adverse events occurred in 4 patients - one patient had grade 3 bronchopulmonary hemorrhage, 3 patients had grade 4 neutropenia and/or thrombocytopenia. There were no treatment-related deaths

-106 (NCT03294577) with the small molecule immune modulator Plinabulin (Plin) for the prevention of chemotherapy-induced neutropenia (CIN), we unexpectedly observed an increase in plasma Hp levels with Plin. The positive CIN data this trial was reported

any grade (OR=0.37, 95% CrI=0.02-6.81). In addition, Olaparib also showed a low risk of neutropenia for adverse events of 3-4 grade (OR=0.57, 95% CrI=0.06-5.75) compared with Talazoparib. Both Talazoparib and Olaparib were not associated with high risk

recombinant human G-CSF made by a subsidiary of Teva Pharmaceuticals that has been approved by the FDA, because the agent has been shown to reduce the duration of severe neutropenia in patients with nonmyeloid malignancies undergoing cancer chemotherapy
