简要总结
G-CSF causes a release of histamine that may be a cause of chronic bone pain. Loratadine targets histamine, and so may be effective in reducing bone pain.The researchers plan to prospectively assess the effectiveness of loratadine for chronic bone pain in patients with chronic G-CSF use.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in Pain Severity Scores as Measured by the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI)
时间窗: Week 1 (baseline week), week 2 (placebo or loratadine), and week 4 (placebo or loratadine).
The Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) rapidly assesses the severity of pain and its impact on functioning. The questions ask participants to rate their pain in the prior 24-hours OR prior 7-day on a 0 to 10 Numerical Rating Scale (NRS), where "0" indicates "No pain" and "10" indicates "Pain as bad as you can imagine." Modified BPI: Included the pain intensity subscale, it is a Numerical Rating Scale with 4 questions (3-6): each item is ranked where 0 is no pain - 10 the worst pain. The Modified BPI will be measured on Days 2, 4, and 6. The full BPI will be measured on Day 7. On day 7 only responses from questions 3-6 will be analyzed for this outcome and a mean composite score for Days 2, 4, 6, and 7 will be calculated.
次要结局
