Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Mean Duration of Grade 4 Neutropenia During Cycle 1 of Chemotherapy21 days (Cycle 1 of chemotherapy treatment)

Mean duration of severe neutropenia, defined as the mean number of consecutive days with Grade 4 neutropenia (ANC less than 0.5\*10\^9 cells/L)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Depth of Absolute Neutrophil Count NadirCycle 1/ 21 days

Depth of Absolute Neutrophil Count Nadir, defined as the patient's lowest Absolute Neutrophil Count in cycle 1

Time to Absolute Neutrophil Count RecoveryCycle 1/ 21 days

Time to Absolute Neutrophil Count recovery, defined as the time in days from Absolute Neutrophil Count nadir until the patient's Absolute Neutrophil Count increases to more or equal to 2\*10\^9 cells/L after the nadir in cycle 1

Incidence of Hospitalizations Due to Febrile Neutropenia21 Weeks/ 6 cycles

Incidence of hospitalizations due to Febrile Neutropenia

Number of Days of Fever21 weeks/ 6 cycles

Number of days of fever by cycle. Fever is defined as oral temperature greater than or equal to 38.3°C.

Frequency of Infections21 Weeks/ 6 cycles

Frequency of infections by cycle and across all cycles

Incidence of Febrile Neutropenia21 weeks/ 6 cycles

Incidence of febrile neutropenia by duraton within each cycle and across all cycles. Febrile neutropenia is defined as oral temperature greater than or equal 38.3°C while having an Absolute Neutrophil Count \< 0.5\*10\^9 cells/L (both measured on the same day)
