Description

We analyzed the clinical effects of recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rhG-CSF) in allogeneic bone marrow transplanted children. The median period required for neutrophil recovery (> 500/μl) was markedly shortened by the rhG-CSF treatment : 21 days in the rhG-CSF group (n=11) versus 27 days in the historical control group (n=12). We found no effects on recovery of other blood cell series. However, the mean neutrophil counts and frequency of neutropenic patients at day 11 and day 15 after BMT were not significantly different in both groups. These results suggest that rhG-CSF does not contribute to neutrophil recovery in very early posttransplant period. It may be necessary to evaluate further on ideal time for starting rhG-CSF in children who undergo allogeneic bone marrow transplantation.
