Dependence of positive effects of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor on the antibiotic regimen : evaluation in rats with polymicrobial peritonitis

We tested the hypothesis that the ability of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) to prevent death from fecal peritonitis is influenced by the composition of the antibiotic regimen with which it is administered. We used a rodent model of polymicrobial peritoneal contamination and infection and the concept of clinical modeling randomized trials (CMRTs), which includes the conditions of randomized, clinical trials and complex clinical interventions (e.g., anesthesia, volume substitution, antibiotics, surgery, postoperative analgesia). With the peritonitis model we obtained a mortality dose-response curve that was sensitive to antibiotic prophylaxis. G-CSF was most efficacious when it was administered both prophylactically and after the onset of peritonitis. Cefuroxime/metronidazole, ofloxacin/metronidazole, and amoxicillin/clavulanate improved survival in combination with G-CSF best, whereas cefotaxime or ceftriaxone with and without metronidazole did not. G-CSF administration was associated with improved polymorphonuclear neutrophil phagocytosis and enhanced bacterial clearance. Pro-inflammatory cytokine release (tumor necrosis factor-a, interleukin-6, macrophage inflammatory protein-2) was decreased in plasma and in the peritoneal fluid. Their expression was lowered in various organs on the protein and mRNA level. The results were used to design a clinical trial to test the ability of G-CSF to prevent serious infections in patients with colorectal cancer surgery. In this trial G-CSF application and antibiotic prophylaxis were performed with the most effective scheduling and combinations (cefuroxime/metronidazole and ofloxacin/metronidazole) as defined here.
