Fylnetra is the brand name for pegfilgrastim-pbbk subcutaneous injection.

Fylnetra is available as a 6 mg/0.6 mL solution in a single-dose prefilled syringe.

Fylnetra is a colony stimulating factor that is used for infection prevention in people with certain cancers receiving anticancer medications that can cause low white blood cells (or febrile neutropenia).

Fylnetra is a granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF). It works like the G-CSF protein that you naturally have in your body. G-CSF stimulates (triggers) your bone marrow to make neutrophils, a type of white blood cell that helps your body fight infections.

Fylnetra is dosed as follows:

Patients with cancer receiving myelosuppressive chemotherapy:

• 6 mg administered subcutaneously once per chemotherapy cycle
• Do not administer between 14 days before and 24 hours after administration of cytotoxic chemotherapy.
• Use weight based dosing for pediatric patients weighing less than 45 kg

Fylnetra is a safe and effective treatment when used for FDA licensed indications. However, like all medications, they may give you unwanted side effects. You should always discuss potential side effects with your physician to ensure the medication is suitable and right for you. You should not use this medication if you have a history of serious allergic reactions to human granulocyte colony-stimulating factors such as pegfilgrastim products or filgrastim products.
