Usefulness of pegfilgrastim for allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell collection from healthy donors
Abstract Background Granulocyte colony‐stimulating factor (G‐CSF)‐based mobilization is essential for peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) collection for allogeneic transplantation. Conventional daily G‐CSF requires repeated dosing and dose adjustment and often necessitates leukapheresis over multiple consecutive days, increasing donor burden. Single‐dose

ABSTRACT Methotrexate (MTX) is a folate antagonist widely used as a disease‐modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), as well as in several malignancies and autoimmune disorders. Although low‐dose MTX (5–20 mg/week) is generally considered safe, it has a narrow therapeutic index, and toxicity can occur even at therapeutic doses,
