Abstract   Purpose: Severe thrombocytopenia is a rare but life threatening side effect of anticancer chemotherapy. This study is for delineating risk factors for anticancer chemotherapy induced thrombocytopenia requiring platelet transfusion in cancer patients Materials and Methods: Ninety seven cases of cancers (stomach cancer 37, lung cancer 31 and breast cancer 29) were included in this study design. Complete blood cell counts were done at day 1 and then twice a week to find lowerest thrombocyte count in each cycle. Discriminant analysis of risk factors for chemotherapy induced thrombocytopenia requiring platelet transfusion were performed. Results: Anticancer chemotherapy induced thrombocytopenia less than 150,000/ ¥ìL developed in 18 cases (20.0%) at day 20.6¡¾8.0 and mean platelet count was 111,06035,360/¥ìL. Thrombocytopenia less than 100,000/¥ìL developed in 10 cases (10.3%) at day 20.2¡¾6.9 and mean platelet count was 56,200¡¾30,460/¥ìL. Among them platelet transfusions were needed in 6 cases (6.2%). Using discrininant analysis, day 1 platelet count less than 150,000/pL with total lymphocyte count less than 900/ Purpose: Severe thrombocytopenia is a rare but life threatening side effect of anticancer che- motherapy.

Complete blood cell counts were done at day 1 and then twice a week to find lowerest thrombocyte count in each cycle. Discriminant analysis of risk factors for chemotherapy induced thrombocytopenia requiring platelet transfusion were performed. Results: Anticancer chemotherapy induced thrombocytopenia less than 150,000/ pL developed in 18 cases (20.0%) at day 20.6+8.0 and mean platelet count was 111,06035,360/pL. Tlpombocytopenia less than 100,000/pL developed in 10 cases (10.3%) at day 20.2+6.9 and mean platelet count was 56,200+30,460/pL. Among them platelet transfusions were needed in 6 cases (6.2%). Using discrininant analysis, day 1 platelet count less than 150,000/pL with total lymphocyte count less than 900/ pL were identified as risk factors for anticancer chemotherapy induced thrombocytopenia requiring platelet transfusion. Conclusion: Thrombocytopenia less than 150,000 pL with total lymphocyte count less than 900/ pL before administrating anticancer drugs are high risk factors for platelet transfusion, and needed proper managements. ¥ìL were identified as risk factors for anticancer chemotherapy induced thrombocytopenia requiring platelet transfusion.
