Abstract
Recombinant growth factors, particularly granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), have been only available for a few years. Since their introduction they have affected the management of drug-induced neutropenia, the use of dose intensive chemotherapy regimens and in the setting of autologous stem cell transplantation. This review addresses the clinical role of GM-CSF, using the data available, in neutrophil recovery in relation to various health care parameters.Entities:
