摘要
Pegfilgrastim (Neulasta®), the sustained-duration form of filgrastim (recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor [G-CSF]), is created by the addition of a polyethylene glycol (PEG) moiety to filgrastim. Its approved indication in the US is to decrease the incidence of infection, as manifested by febrile neutropenia, in patients with non-myeloid malignancies receiving myelosuppressive chemotherapy.
