AI summarySynthesized from FDA + DailyMed + ClinicalTrials.gov data
NEULASTA (pegfilgrastim) is a long-acting granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) analog administered subcutaneously to reduce infection risk in cancer patients receiving chemotherapy. It stimulates the bone marrow to produce neutrophils, mitigating chemotherapy-induced neutropenia (CIN). The pegylated formulation extends half-life compared to filgrastim, enabling once-per-cycle dosing.
