When a decrease of leucocyte values lower than 1000/mm3 is expected, the most cost-effective treatment is given when starting the interventional G-CSF administration already at leucocyte values around 1600/mm3. Leucopenias can be treated effectively, with little side effects and in a cost-effective way when G-CSF is given on time.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
