About

The aim of this study was to observe the efficacy and safety of Efbemalenograstim Alfa in the prevention of absolute neutrophil count (ANC) reduction after chemotherapy in Ovarian and Cervical cancer patients at risk of platinum-containing chemotherapy with risk factors in febrile neutropenia (FN).

Full description

This study is a single-arm, multicenter clinical trial. A total of 83 patients will be enrolled, including 55 patients with primary epithelial ovarian cancer (including fallopian tube cancer and primary peritoneal cancer) and 28 patients with primary or recurrent/metastatic cervical cancer in the first-line setting.

Ovarian Cancer

Chemotherapy regimen (Paclitaxel + Carboplatin ± Bevacizumab):

Paclitaxel 175mg/m2, intravenous infusion over 3 hours, on day 1; followed by Carboplatin Area under the curve 5(AUC5), intravenous infusion over 1 hour, on day 1; Bevacizumab 7.5-15 mg/kg, on day 1, administered as intravenous infusion; repeated every 3 weeks.

(2) Cervical Cancer

Chemotherapy regimen (Paclitaxel + Carboplatin/Cisplatin ± Bevacizumab):

Paclitaxel 175mg/m2, intravenous infusion over 3 hours, on day 1; followed by Carboplatin AUC5, intravenous infusion over 1 hour, on day 1, or Cisplatin 50-80mg/m2, intravenous infusion over 1-3 hours, on day 1; Bevacizumab 7.5-15 mg/kg, on day 1, administered as intravenous infusion; repeated every 3 weeks.

Efbemalenograstim Alfa should be administered subcutaneously, 20mg per injection, within 24-48 hours after the completion of each chemotherapy cycle.

Inclusion criteria

≥ 18 years old and ≤ 70 years old.
First-line epithelial ovarian cancer (including fallopian tube cancer and primary peritoneal cancer) and first-line treatment or recurrent/metastatic cervical cancer.
Planned to receive 3-6 cycles of paclitaxel + carboplatin/cisplatin ± bevacizumab therapy.
Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score < 2.
Expected survival time > 3 months.
Before enrollment, neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 2.0 × 10^9/L, hemoglobin (Hb) ≥ 90.0 g/L, and platelet (PLT) ≥ 80 × 10^9/L.
Associated with ≥ 1 self-factors increasing the risk of febrile neutropenia (FN): ① age > 65 years, receiving full-dose intensity chemotherapy; ② history of previous chemotherapy or radiotherapy; ③ persistent neutropenia; ④ tumor involvement of the bone marrow; ⑤ recent surgery and/or open wounds; ⑥ hepatic dysfunction (bilirubin > 2.0 mg•dL-1); ⑦ renal dysfunction (creatinine clearance rate < 50 mL•min-1); ⑧ history of previous FN occurrence; ⑨ concomitant malignant hematological or lymphatic system diseases; ⑩ chronic immunosuppression; ⑪ poor nutritional/physical status. Individualized judgment and decision-making based on the patient's specific condition are required in clinical practice.
