Continuous infusion of ceftazidime for patients with breast cancer and multiple myeloma receiving high-dose chemotherapy and peripheral blood stem cell transplantation

Abstract: Summary:This prospective study was performed to examine the safety and efficacy of a continuous infusion of ceftazidime in patients who developed febrile neutropenia after high-dose chemotherapy (HDCT) and autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT) and to determine if the underlying disease represents a risk factor for infectious complications.

“…Thus, the results are comparable to other data from the literature 17,18 and to our own data in previously published papers. 19,20 Antibiotic therapy was discontinued when the patients displayed a body temperature below 381C on 5 consecutive days, even if they were still neutropenic. In other studies, treatment was not discontinued until after 10 afebrile days, or antibiotic treatment was continued until the granulocyte count increased to values above 0.5/nl.…”

“…S eftazidim merupakan antibiotik golongan sefalosporin generasi ketiga yang menjadi pilihan terapi antibiotik empiris lini pertama untuk infeksi pada pasien kanker payudara karena aktivitasnya cukup luas dalam melawan bakteri gram-negatif dan gram-positif. 1 Egerer et al, (2002) mengungkapkan bahwa median durasi neutropenia pasca-kemoterapi pada kanker payudara adalah sebelas hari dan menurun menjadi delapan hari setelah dimulainya terapi seftazidim sehingga pemberian seftazidim dapat mengurangi kebutuhan hospitalisasi. 2 Variasi harga sediaan seftazidim generik yang beredar dari berbagai pabrik farmasi dapat memberikan variasi besaran biaya pengobatan.…”

Hal ini memicu perlunya dilakukan penelitian untuk mengetahui jenis seftazidim yang lebih menguntungkan dalam menangani infeksi pasca-kemoterapi pada pasien kanker payudara stadium awal dan lanjut di Rumah Sakit Kanker "Dharmais", Jakarta, selaku rumah sakit rujukan nasional penyakit kanker.…”

“…We have observed a slightly higher incidence of gram negative pathogens. inserción de catéteres venosos centrales, déficit nutricional, hipotensión, deshidratación y de manera especial la intensidad y duración de la neutropenia provocado por el tratamiento citostático (2)(3)(4)(5)(6). En estos pacientes existen además alteraciones en los mecanismos de inmunidad humoral y celular secundarios tanto al tratamiento aplicado como a la enfermedad subyacente (1).…”
