Docetaxel(DTX)plus ramucirumab(RAM)therapy is recommended as second-line or later treatment by the Japanese lung cancer guideline. However, febrile neutropenia(FN)is a frequent complication with this therapy. Efforts for reducing FN risk are essential. We administered pegfilgrastim, a durable granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, as primary prophylaxis for FN to all patients. We also reduced the dose of DTX according to its toxicity. Moreover, we used RAM monotherapy. Herein, we report the results of these efforts regarding DTX plus RAM therapy. We retrospectively reviewed the therapeutic results and occurrence of various adverse effects in 11 patients who started receiving DTX plus RAM therapy in our department between August 2016 and December 2017. Median number of DTX plus RAM cycles was 8(1-25). The following best effects were noted: 2(18%)patients, complete response: 5(45%), partial response: 2(18%), stable disease: and 2(18%), nonevaluable. No patient showed progressive disease. The overall response rate was 63.6%, and the disease control rate was 81.8%. Median progression-free survival was 127 days, and the 1-year progression-free survival rate was 27.3%. The median overall survival duration was not reached, and the 1-year overall survival rate was 53.0%. Adverse effects higher than Grade 3 occurred in 2 cases. FN was not observed. By using pegfilgrastim as primary prophylaxis, we could suppress FN onset in patients; furthermore, we observed better overall response and disease control rates than those observed in clinical trials.
