Abstract:
:Fourteen patients with Hodgkin's disease (two previously untreated, 12 following relapse or with refractory disease) were treated with a combination chemotherapy regimen comprising chlorambucil, vinblastine, procarbazine, prednisolone, etoposide, vincristine and adriamycin administered on days 1-8. Recombinant human granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (rhGM-CSF) (mammalian glycosylated, Sandoz/Schering-Plough) was administered after alternate cycles of chemotherapy from day 10 for 7 days by continuous intravenous (i.v.) infusion in 12 patients in a dose finding study (dose: 2 micrograms/kg/day in four patients, 4 micrograms/kg/day in four patients and 8 micrograms/kg/day in four patients) and by daily subcutaneous (s/c) injections in two patients (8 micrograms/kg/day). There was a rapid peripheral leucocytosis following the rhGM-CSF, reaching a peak at 1-2 days in 12/14 patients. The initial leucocytosis was composed of neutrophils followed by a rise in immature myeloid cells. There was no difference observed in the duration or depth of the nadir following chemotherapy or in the rate of recovery of peripheral white cell counts between cycles with and without rhGM-CSF in patients treated with 2 and 4 micrograms/kg/day. At the dose of 8 micrograms/kg/day, 3/6 patients had a shorter nadir duration in the cycle with rhGM-CSF, compared with cycle without rhGM-CSF. There was no difference in frequency of infection in cycles with and without rhGM-CSF. Following chemotherapy, six patients achieved clinical remission, six partial remission and two had progressive disease.
