    Abstract:
    We studied myelotoxicity of modern schemes of chemotherapy for breast cancer (docetaxel/doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide/doxorubicin/5-fluorouracil) towards granulocytopoiesis, the mechanisms determining the differences of hematological effects of these schemes, and the efficiency of correction of the observed changes with granulocyte CSF (filgrastim). Granulocytopoiesis stimulation with filgrastim during the treatment with docetaxel/doxorubicin combination was more pronounced than during cyclophosphamide/doxorubicin/5-fluorouracil therapy. The observed differences were found at all levels of granulocyte lineage organization (central and peripheral), which is related to different effects of the cytostatic substances used in the proposed protocols on the structures controlling hemopoiesis.
