Evaluating Omission of Granulocyte Colony-stimulating Factors in Breast Cancer Patients Receiving Paclitaxel Portion of Dose-dense Adriamycin-cyclophosphamide and Paclitaxel Chemotherapy
A Randomized Pragmatic Trial Evaluating Omission of Granulocyte Colony-stimulating Factors in Breast Cancer Patients Receiving Paclitaxel Portion of Dose-dense Adriamycin-cyclophosphamide and Paclitaxel Chemotherapy (REaCT-OGF)
Ottawa Hospital Research Institute
242 participants
Apr 17, 2023
INTERVENTIONAL
Summary
The goal of this randomized, pragmatic clinical trial is to evaluate the omission of granulocyte colony-stimulating factors (G-CSF) in breast cancer patients receiving paclitaxel portion of dose-dense adriamycin-cyclophosphamide and paclitaxel (DD-AC/T) chemotherapy. Participants will be randomized to either take G-CSF while on the paclitaxel portion of DD-AC/T chemotherapy or to omit G-CSF while on the paclitaxel portion of DD-AC/T chemotherapy.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria3
- Patients with early-stage or locally-advanced breast cancer receiving neoadjuvant or adjuvant DD-AC/T chemotherapy requiring primary febrile neutropenia prophylaxis with G-CSF
- Able to provide verbal consent
- Able to complete questionnaires in English or French
Exclusion Criteria5
- No access to pegfilgrastim or filgrastim prior to randomization
- Metastatic cancer
- Known hypersensitivity to filgrastim or pegfilgrastim or one of its components
- Patients received prior cytotoxic chemotherapy within the last 5 years
- Patients with uncontrolled inter-current illness that would limit compliance with study requirements or other significant diseases or disorders that, in the investigator's opinion, would exclude the subject from participating in the study
Interventions
Participants will receive G-CSF injection (either filgrastim or pegfilgrastim) after each paclitaxel cycle of DD-AC/T chemotherapy.
Participants will omit the use of G-CSF (either filgrastim or pegfilgrastim) after each paclitaxel cycle of DD-AC/T chemotherapy
