NCT ID NCT06926751

First seen May 08, 2026 · Last updated May 08, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether a new drug called Telpegfilgrastim, given as a single shot, works better than the standard daily drug Filgrastim at preventing dangerously low white blood cell counts (neutropenia) in children and teens aged 6 to 24 with solid tumors. About 132 participants will receive either the new or standard drug after each chemotherapy cycle. The main goal is to see if the new drug reduces fevers and infections during the first cycle.
