      Body temperature of >38.5°C for at least one hour and ANC<1*10^9/L

    2. Incidence of FN [18 weeks]

      A single temperature of ≥38.3°C or ≥38.0°C for at least one hour and ANC <1 * 10^9/L

    3. Incidence of very severe neutropenia [3 weeks]

      The occurrence of at least one incidence of ANC <0.1 * 10*9/L

    4. Incidence of infections [18 weeks]

      Incidence and severity of infections

    5. Time to ANC recovery [3 weeks]

      The time in days from start of chemotherapy administration until the ANC increases to ≥1.0 x 109/L, ≥1.5 x 109/L, and ≥2.0 x 109/L after the expected nadir

    6. Summary of participants with adverse events [9 Months]
