Sample text
The absolute numbers of lymphocytes increased approximately twofold, but the number of monocytes, eosinophils, reticulocytes, and platelets did not change significantly. In the spleen, foci of extramedullary hematopoiesis were observed. No other organs demonstrated evidence of hematopoietic activities. The neutrophils functioned normally in standard tests for chemotaxis and there was evidence of enhanced ability to kill phagocytized bacteria [15]. We further investigated whether or not rG-CSF might be of benefit in chemotherapy-induced neutropenia and after bone marrow transplantation.
A challenge that was also faced was the duration of development, and the number of patients needed for safety studies continued to increase from several hundred in the regulatory submissions for rHuEPO and rHuG-CSF to over a thousand for darbepoetin alfa and pegfilgrastim. During the 5 years taken for development and the time taken for label extensions of the hematopoietic growth factors, the clinical settings and the hurdles for successful development changed. In the period 1987–2000, AIDS became a treatable disease and neutropenia became a rare event, and the development of filgrastim in this setting became less feasible.
Metcalf et al. showed that in G-CSFÀ/À mice, neutrophil recruitment into the peritoneal cavity in response to casein-induced inflammation was normal [26]. However, G-CSFRÀ/À neutrophils have selected defects in mature neutrophil function. Whereas neutrophil superoxide generation and degranulation are normal, chemotaxis and adhesion of G-CSFRÀ/À neutrophils are impaired, likely due to defective [2] integrin activation [27]. Likewise, neutrophil recruitment to an inflamed knee joint and the number of adherent neutrophils in synovial blood vessels in a collagen-induced arthritis model are reduced in G-CSFÀ/À and G-CSFRÀ/À mice [28].
