Now enhanced with 13 new chapters, Filgrastim (r-metHuG-CSF) in Clinical Practice, Second Edition features novel research as well as provocative and enhanced information on
pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic modeling to delineate concentration-response relationships

Filgrastim as treatment or prophylaxis for decreasing infectious episodes, intensifying immunosuppresive therapy, and mobilizing progenitor stem cells

improving granulocyte collection yields from normal donors and neutrophil transfusions in recipients of such products

the potential of peripheral blood progenitor cell (PBPC) transplantation in diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis

maintaining optimal chemotherapy intensity in situations where dose reduction or delay is necessary

combining Filgrastim with various cytokines, including granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, stem-cell factor, rHuSCF, IL-3, and erythropoietin

Filgrastim's toxicity profile, daily aspects of administration, economic impact, and effect on patients' quality of life

and much more!
Containing over 1650 references-more than 600 new to this edition!-this truly outstanding Second Edition continues to furnish unparalleled coverage of the subject matter for oncologists, hematologists, infectious disease specialists, immunologists, radiotherapists, oncological nurses, and graduate and medical school students in these disciplines.
