A new therapeutic strategy for advanced ovarian cancer is to administer ultra-high doses of anticancerous drugs, followed by peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT) to recover normal marrow functions. There are, however, no clear regimens to induce mobilization of peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs). We therefore used three different chemotherapies and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) to produce a rebound increase in PBSCs during myelosuppression by apheresis. Eleven patients with advanced ovarian cancer (FIGO Stage; IIc-1, IIIc-5, IV-4, Recurrence-1) received chemotherapy with CEP (cyclophosphamide: 500-750mg/m2, epirubicin: 50-70mg/m2, cisplatin: 70mg/m2), CEE (cyclophosphamide: 2,000mg/m2, epirubicin: 50mg/m2, etoposide: 300mg/m2, and PEC salvage (cisplatin: 75mg/m2, etoposide: 300mg/m2, cyclophosphamide: 1,000mg/m2) followed by lenograstim (G-CSF; 2 micrograms/kg subcutaneous injection daily for 14-18 days) to mobilize PBSCs. A range of 0-38.2 x 10(4) (mean +/- S.D.; 11.1 +/- 5.0 x 10(4) colony forming unit granulocyte-macrophage (CFU-GM)/kg in the CEP regimen (n = 15), 1.6-40.8 x 10(4) (mean +/- S.D.; 12.3 +/- 3.6 x 10(4) CFU-GM/kg in the CEE regimen (n = 11), and 8.6-11.4 x 10(4) (mean +/- S.D.; 10.0 +/- 2.0 x 10(4) CFU-GM/kg in the PEC salvage regimen (n = 2) were recruited by a single apheresis. Although the CEE regimen to mobilize PBSCs was much more efficient than the CEP regimen, a large number of PBSCs showing 38.2 x 10(4) CFU-GM/kg were mobilized by the CEP regimen with a dose-escalation of cyclophosphamide 750mg/m2 and epirubicin 70mg/m2. The number of CFU-GM/kg correlated well with that of CD34+ (r = 0.693).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
