Relevance: 23.07.2019 Reviewer: Shkutko P.M., M.D., in

When checking interaction based on authoritative sources Drugs.com, Rxlist.com, Webmd.com, Medscape.com there are contraindications or side effects that may cause harm or increase the negative effect from drug use in presence of concomitant diseases.

Consumer:

Colony stimulating factors primarily stimulates the proliferation of neutrophils but may also, theoretically, enhance tumor growth, particularly in myeloid malignancies. Therapy with these drugs should be administered cautiously in patients with myeloid tumors. Additionally, if used for PBPC (peripheral blood progenitor cell) collection in such patients, tumor cells may be released from the marrow and collected in the leukapheresis product. The effect of reinfusion of tumor cells is uncertain at this time.
