Dosage
The recommended dose in previously untreated patients with normal
renal function (i.e.
creatinine clearance > 60 ml/min) is 400 mg/m² as a single dose short
intravenous infusion
(15-60 minutes).
Treatment should not be repeated until 4 weeks not passed since the
previous carboplatin
therapy cycle and/or until the neutrophil count is at least 2,000
cells/mm³ and the platelet
count is at least 100,000 cells/mm³.
In patients with risk factors such as prior myelosuppressive treatment
and low performance
status (ECOG/Zubrod 2-4 or Karnofsky below 80), a starting dose
reduction of 20-25% is
recommended.
During the initial cycles, determination of the haematological nadir
with weekly blood counts
is recommended in order to make a dose adjustment for further
treatments.
