Colony-Stimulating Factors, Breast Cancer, and Leukemia Risk

Granulocyte and granulocyte–macrophage colony-stimulating factors (G-CSF), which stimulate hematopoiesis (blood cell production), are used increasingly in women with breast cancer to enable them to endure higher chemotherapy doses than would otherwise be possible. Data from in vitro and epidemiologic studies, however, have suggested that these cytokines may increase the risk of acute myelocytic leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Hershman et al. (p. 196) analyzed these outcomes in women in a Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER)–Medicare database who received chemotherapy for breast cancer. Women who had received concurrent growth . . . [Full Text of this Article]
