Objective:To explore the effect of Pegylated recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (PEG-rhG-CSF) with chemotherapy on breast cancer patients who got agranulocytosis of 3 to 4 degree, agranulocytosis with fever (FN) and the influential factors of relative dose intensity (RDI) chemotherapy scheme. Meantime, the value of CD34 + and CD45 in peripheral blood on predicting agranulocytosis of 3-4 degree were investigated.Methods:A total of 104 women with breast cancer were treated at Huzhou Maternal and Child Health Hospital and Cancer Hospital of Zhejiang Province from Jan. 2022 to Sep. 2023. All subjects received primary prevention with PEG-rhG-CSF during chemotherapy. The clinical risk factors of agranulocytosis, FN and RDI were analyzed. The levels of CD34 + and CD45 in peripheral blood samples were analyzed by flow cytometry. Then the predictive value of the receiver characteristic curve (ROC) for Grade 3 to 4 agranulocytosis after primary prophylaxis with PEG-rhG-CSF for breast cancer chemotherapy was evaluated.Results:Among 104 breast cancer patients who received primary prevention of PEG-rhG-CSF during chemotherapy, 28 patients had agranulocytosis of 3 to 4 grade, 10 patients got FN, and 12 patients developed RDI<85%. The results of single factor analysis showed that CD34 +, CD45 and chemotherapy scheme were the influential factors of agranulocytosis of 3 to 4 degree, and low RDI of chemotherapy scheme ( OR=0.584, OR=0.999, OR=2.299, OR=0.100, OR=0.999, OR=3.088, P<0.05) . It also showed that CD34 + and chemotherapy scheme were the influential factors of FN ( OR=0.099, OR=2.667, P<0.05) . Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that CD34 +, CD45 and intensive chemotherapy were the independent risk factors of agranulocytosis of 3 to 4 degree after primary prevention with PEG-rhG-CSF ( OR=0.602, OR=0.999, OR=20.174, P<0.05) . CD34 + and intensive chemotherapy scheme were the independent influential factors of FN and RDI of chemotherapy scheme after primary prevention with PEG-RHG-CSF ( OR=0.072, OR=33.934, OR=0.086, OR=54.788, P<0.05) . The area under the curve (AUC) of CD34 + were 0.767 (95% CI:0.659-0.876) , AUC of CD45 were 0.743 (95% CI:0.644-0.842) , and the AUC of combined two indexes was 0.825 (95% CI:0.730-0.920) , which was higher than that of single index. So AUC of CD34 + and CD45 can be used for predicting agranulocytosis of grade 3 to 4 in breast cancer patients receiving primary prophylaxis with PEG-rhG-CSF. Conclusions:The levels of CD34 + and CD45 in peripheral blood of breast cancer patients with agranulocytosis of grade 3 to 4 receiving primary prevention with PEG-rhG-CSF during chemotherapy are lower. Combined detection of CD34 + and CD45 in peripheral blood can predict the occurrence of agranulocytosis of grade 3 to 4 in breast cancer patients after primary prevention with PEG-rhG-CSF. Also it can provide a reliable basis for assessing the risk of grade 3 to 4 agranulocytosis.

Objective To evaluate a model for axillary lymph node involvement combining CK19 mRNA with contrast enhanced ultrasound sonography (CEUS) score in operable breast cancer.Methods Operable breast cancer patients planned for sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy were enrolled.Preoperative CK19mRNA expressions in peripheral blood and CEUS score of axillary lymph nodes were tested before surgery.In the training set,postoperative sentinel lymph node (SLN) and non-sentinel lymph node (nSLN) pathological results were taken as the gold standard,effective modeling variables were screened,logistic regression was used to establish the prediction model.Parallel control studies were conducted between the validation set and the MSKCC model to evaluate the prediction accuracy and prediction efficiency.Results From Oct 2015 to Nov 2016,359 cases (training set) were enrolled and mathematical formulas for predicting SLN and nSLN were established,respectively.The sensitivity,specificity and AUC of predicting SLN involvement were 91.36％,94.92％ and 0.979 respectively.The sensitivity,specificity and AUC of predicting nSLN metastasis were 91.04％,90.53％ and 0.932 respectively.From Dec 2016 to Jul 2017,219 cases (verification set) were included.The sensitivity of SLN metastasis predicted by the model was 91.84％,the specificity was 96.69％,and the AUC was 0.979,significantly superior to the MSKCC model (0.739).The sensitivity,specificity and AUC of predicting nSLN metastasis were 95.35％,92.73％ and 0.945 respectively,significantly superior to the MSKCC model (0.873).Concolusions Combined with peripheral blood CK19 mRNA and CEUS score,the prediction model for axillary lymph node involvement for operable breast cancer,SLN/nSLN involvement probability can be calculated and qualitative judgment can be made.The overall accuracy and AUC of this model are better than the prediction model of MSKCC.
