NCT ID NCT07187908

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This study tests a drug called efbemalenograstim alfa to prevent febrile neutropenia—a serious infection risk—in people with solid tumors undergoing chemotherapy. About 1,076 participants will receive the injection either as a first-time prevention or after a prior low white blood cell count. The goal is to see if it safely reduces infection rates and helps patients stay on track with their cancer treatment.
