PURPOSE A randomized unblinded phase III trial was designed to determine the ability of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) to accelerate recovery from febrile neutropenia induced by chemotherapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 68 patients with febrile neutropenia following chemotherapy defined as axillary temperature greater than 38 degrees C and absolute neutrophil count (ANC) less than 1 x 10(9)/L were included. After stratification for high- and low-risk chemotherapy to induce febrile neutropenia, treatment was randomized between GM-CSF at 5 microg/kg/d or control, both being associated with antibiotics. RESULTS GM-CSF significantly reduced the median duration of neutropenia from 6 to 3 days for ANC less than 1 x 10(9)/L(P < .001) and from 4 to 3 days for ANC less than 0.5 x 10(9)/L (P=.024), days of hospitalization required for febrile neutropenia, and duration of antibiotics during hospitalization. The greatest benefit with GM-CSF appeared for patients who had received low-risk chemotherapy, for which the median duration of ANC less than 1 x 10(9)/L was reduced from 7 to 2.5 days (P < .001) and from 4 to 2 days for ANC less than 0.5 x 10(9)/L (P=.0011), the duration of hospitalization during the study from 7 to 4 days (P=.003), and the duration on antibiotics during hospitalization from 7 to 3.5 days (P < .001). A multivariate analysis, using Cox regression, showed that variables predictive for recovery from neutropenia were GM-CSF (P=.0010) and time interval between the first day of chemotherapy and randomization (P=.030). There was no benefit for GM-CSF when high-risk chemotherapy was considered. CONCLUSION GM-CSF significantly shortened duration of neutropenia, duration of neutropenic fever-related hospitalization, and duration on antibiotics during hospitalization when febrile neutropenia occurred after low-risk chemotherapy, but not high-risk chemotherapy.

PURPOSE This phase III randomized trial was designed to determine if granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) reduces the hematologic toxicity and morbidity induced by chemoradiotherapy in limited-stage small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). METHODS This multicenter prospective trial randomized 230 patients to receive chemotherapy and radiotherapy (RT) with or without GM-CSF given on days 4 to 18 of each of six cycles. The primary end point was hematologic toxicity. Secondary end points included the following: nonhematologic toxicities; days of (1) fever, (2) antibiotics, (3) hospitalization, and (4) infection; number of transfusions; drug doses delivered; and response rates and survival. RESULTS There was a statistically significant increase in the frequency and duration of life-threatening thrombocytopenia (P < .001) in patients randomized to GM-CSF. GM-CSF patients had significantly more toxic deaths (P < .01), more nonhematologic toxicities, more days in hospital, a higher incidence of intravenous (IV) antibiotic usage, and more transfusions. Patients randomized to GM-CSF had higher WBC and neutrophil nadirs (P < .01), but no significant difference in the frequency of grade 4 leukopenia or neutropenia. Patients randomized to GM-CSF had a lower complete response rate (36% v 44%), but the differences were not significant (P = .29). There were no significant differences in survival (median, 14 months on GM-CSF and 17 months on no GM-CSF; P = .15). CONCLUSION GM-CSF, as delivered in this study, should not be included with concurrent chemoradiotherapy treatment programs for limited-stage SCLC. The simultaneous use of hematopoietic colony-stimulating factors (CSFs) and chemoradiotherapy should be performed only in experimental settings. Chemoradiotherapy programs with cisplatin and etoposide ([VP-16] PE) and simultaneous chest RT produce grade 4 neutropenia and thrombocytopenia in a small-enough proportion of patients that prophylactic hematopoietic growth factors are clinically unnecessary.
