Michael Mackey, McGill University Using mathematical modeling
to tailor the administration of G-CSF in disease
states
In this talk I will briefly
describe recent preliminary work that we have carried
out using a mathematical model for the regulation
of human hematopoiesis to investigate optimal delivery
strategies for granulocyte colony stimulating factor
(G-CSF) in the treatment of patients with cyclical
neutropenia, and to aid patients in the post-chemotherapy
phase.
