Summary

This study tests whether a drug called mecapegfilgrastim can safely prevent moderate-to-severe myelosuppression (low blood cell counts) caused by chemotherapy and radiation for lung or esophageal cancer. About 30 adults aged 18-75 will receive the drug alongside their standard cancer treatment. Researchers will monitor blood counts and other side effects to see if the drug helps reduce complications.
