Abstract:
Objective To observe the therapeutic effect and adverse effect for chemthrombocytopenic of rhIL-11 in chemotherapy for acute myeloid leukemia. Methods We adopted a randomized, blank-control, crossover trial of rhIL-11 in 16 newly diagnosed patients with acute myeloid leukemia. The treatment group were accepted chemotherapy by DA or TA. rhIL-11 (25μg·kg-1·d-1, subcutaneously) was administered from 24 h after chemotherapy and continued for seven to fourteen days. The changes of platelet counts were observed. Results The group by chemotherapy had higher platelet counts than control after rhIL-11 treatment and platelet transfusion frequency was reduced. The adverse effect of rhIL-11 was light, including fatigue, muscular soreness and low-grade fever. Conclusion rhIL-11 is safe and effective in reducing chemotherapy thrombocytopenia.
