1 Objectives Juanita Madison, RN, MN, AOCN Franciscan Health System Describe the hematopoietic system How blood cells are developed Role & function of blood cells Growth factors that stimulate blood cell development Identify differences between innate and acquired immunity. Review areas of research for innovative therapies. Why do we need to know this? The Nurse s Role? Provides an understanding of signs & symptoms/side effects that occur due to disruptions in: Production of blood cells Immune system Provides an understanding of treatments aimed at: Boosting production of blood cell lines Utilizing body s own mechanisms to fight cancer and/or mitigate side effects What is the patient at risk for? When is the patient at risk? What are the primary nursing intervention(s)? What education should be provided? 1
2 What Cell Type? What Cell Type? What Cell Type? All blood cells have two things in common: Originate from a common progenitor cell Develop through a process called hematopoiesis 2
3 Hematopoiesis Process of blood cell formation Red blood cells Platelets White blood cells Greek origin Haima : blood Poiesis : to make Bone Marrow Environment Vessels Marrow Sinuses Marrow Stroma Supportive structure Regulatory proteins Cells Bone Marrow Cellularity Pluripotent Stem Cell Four Year Old Child 80-Year Old Adult Hematopoietic cell Source of all cells uncommitted Progenitor Self renewing Location Marrow Peripheral Blood (CD34+) Migratory properties 3

6 Erythropoiesis Feedback Mechanism Erythropoietin (EPO) Cytokine (protein signaling molecule) for erythrocyte precursors Produced by the kidneys Anemia A term that indicates a low red cell count and a below normal hemoglobin or hematocrit level. Hemoglobin (g/dl) Grade Severity of Anemia Within normal limits 0 Normal 10 - normal 1 Mild 8 - <10 2 Moderate < 8 3 Severe < Life threatening Adapted from the Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events, Version 4.03 June 14, Available at: Caused by Decreased production of RBC Increased destruction of RBC Blood loss Anemia Risk Factors Cancer Radiation Myelosuppressive chemotherapy Platinum containing regimens Low Hgb prior to start of chemo Incidence 50% Higher incidence with subsequent treatments Anemia - Treatment Red Blood Cell transfusion Iron, folate and B 12 supplementation Erythropoietin stimulating agents 6
7 Erythropoietic-Stimulating Agents (ESA s) Mechanism of action: Stimulates erythropoiesis via same mechanism as endogenous erythropoietin (EPO) Indications: Chemotherapy-induced anemia Anemia due to chronic kidney disease in patients on dialysis and not on dialysis Agents Epoetin alfa (Procrit, Epogen ) ) Darbepoetin (Aranesp ) Erythropoietic-Stimulating Agents (ESA s) Route(s) of administration: Subcutaneous, IV Side effects: Risk of tumor progression or shortened overall survival Hypertension; Risk of death, stroke, thrombosis, and serious cardiovascular events is increased if hemoglobin >11g/dl when administered Amgen, Inc., 2012; Janssen Products, LP, Amgen, Inc., 2012; Janssen Products, LP, Erythropoietic-Stimulating Agents (ESA s) Dosing Erythropoietic-Stimulating Agents: Nursing Implications Epoetin Alfa (Procrit, Epogen ): Darbepoetin (Aranesp ) FDA Approved Dosing 40,000 U weekly Or 150 U/kg three times a week 2.25 mcg/kg weekly Or 500 mcg Q 3 weeks NCCN Alternate Dosing Regimens 80,000 U Q 2 weeks Or 120,000 U Q 3 week 100 mcg fixed Q week Or 200 mcg Q 2 weeks OR 300 mcg Q 3 weeks Not indicated for cancer patients when cure is anticipated outcome of treatment Ensure adequate iron stores in patients prior to and during use Do not shake vials or syringes containing drug REM (Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy) Prescriber and hospital must enroll in the ESA APPRISE Oncology Program Amgen, Inc.,2012; Janssen Products, LP, 2013; NCCN, Amgen, Inc.; Janssen Products, LP.,
8 What is a REMS? Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) A program established under the Food and Drug Administration Amendments Act (FDAAA) of 2007 Grants the FDA the authority to require a drug manufacturer to develop and implement a REMS if the FDA determines that a REMS is necessary to ensure that the benefits of a drug outweigh the risks. Aranesp and Procrit REMS key components: Prescriber/Hospital training (online) Enroll in ESA APPRISE Oncology Program Counsel each patient re: risks prior to each course of therapy & document risk: benefit discussion (on specific forms) Risks for patients with cancer: increased risk of death and/or increased risk of tumor progression or recurrence US Food and Drug Administration, 2014 Thrombocytes (Platelets) Function: Hemostasis Normal: 150, ,000 cells/mm 3 Production: 2.5 billion/kg/day Life span: 7-10 days Thrombocytopenia Decreased number of circulating platelets Platelet Count (mm 3 ) Grade Severity of Anemia Within normal limits 0 Normal 75,000 - normal 1 Mild 50,000 - <75,000 2 Moderate 25,000 - < 50,000 3 Severe < 25,000 4 Life threatening Thrombocytopenia Signs/Symptoms of Bleeding Petechiae Bruising Overt/occult Oral Nasopharynx GI Urinary tract Treatment of Thrombocytopenia Platelet Transfusions Interleukin-11 (Neumega ) Adapted from the Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events, Version 4.03 June 14, Available at: 8
9 Oprelvekin (IL-11, Neumega ) Route of administration: Subcutaneous Special dosing considerations: Daily subcutaneous administration starting at 6-24 hours postchemotherapy administration and continuing until platelet count >50,000 Discontinue 2 days before next chemotherapy dose Common indications: Prevention of severe thrombocytopenia and the reduction of the need for platelet transfusions following myelosuppressive chemotherapy in adult patients with nonmyeloid malignancies who are at high risk of severe thrombocytopenia Oprelvekin (IL-11, Neumega ) Side Effects: Peripheral edema, pulmonary edema, dyspnea, tachycardia, conjunctival injection, palpitations, atrial arrhythmias, pleural effusions, fever, headache, nausea, vomiting, insomnia, rhinitis Nursing Considerations: Use with caution in patients with preexisting CHF or other conditions that may be exacerbated by fluid retention Sound-alike/look-alike warning: do not confuse with Neulasta Pfizer, Inc., Pfizer, Inc., Leukocyte Function Cell Type Function When Absent Neutrophil Phagocytosis Bacterial Infection Eosinophil Basophil Allergic reaction Defense against parasites Allergic & inflammatory reactions Parasitic Infections Inadequate inflammatory response Monocyte Phagocytosis Fungal infection Lymphocyte Immunity Viral infections Opportunistic infections Cancer Neutrophils Phagocytic cells Early responder to infection When low: susceptible to bacterial infection Capacity for infection fighting/defense Advantage Limited stimuli provoke a response Early response in large numbers Effective killing bacteria, digest debris (healing) Disadvantage Unable to recognize many injurious agents Cannot modify response (i.e. doesn t learn ) 9
10 Neutrophils Normal Values 60%-80% of total WBC count ( cells/mm 3 ) Life span: 4-10 hours (circulating neutrophils) Production: 1 billion/kg/day What types of patients might be susceptible to infections due to neutrophil counts Neutrophil Functional Neutrophils Polymorphonuclear cell (polys) or segmented neutrophil Banded neutrophil (Band) - less mature Polys/Seg Band Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) Represents number of functional neutrophils Number of circulating Polys + Bands Used as an indicator to determine: Risk of infection Ability to continue therapy 10
11 Assessing Neutrophils: The Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) ANC = Total WBC X % of neutrophils (segs + bands) Example: WBC = 2,500/mm 3 Segmented neutrophils = 35% Band neutrophils = 10% ANC = 2,500 X ( ) = ANC = 2,500 X.45 = 1,125/mm 3 Neutropenia Decreased number of circulating neutrophils ANC predicts risk of infection Neutrophil Count (mm 3 ) Grade Severity of Anemia Within normal limits 0 No Risk 1,500 - normal 1 No significant risk 1,000 - <1,500 2 Minimal risk < 1,000 3 Moderate risk < Severe risk Adapted from the Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events, Version 4.03 June 14, Available at: Consequences of Neutropenia Increased hospital admission Increased risk for infection Higher costs of treatment Delay in treatment Increased risk of unsuccessful treatment Granulocyte-Colony-Stimulating Factors (G-CSF) Mechanisms of action: Regulates production of neutrophils in bone marrow Side effects of drug class: Most common: Bone pain Allergic reactions, splenic rupture, ARDS, may induce sicklecell crisis in patients with sickle-cell disease Nursing considerations for drug class: Store in refrigerator, do not freeze Do not shake vials or syringes containing drug Bone pain may require analgesics such as acetaminophen or NSAIDS Amgen, Inc., 2014; Teva Oncology,
12 Filgrastim (Neupogen ) tbo-filgrastim (Granix ) Route of administration: Subcutaneous (filgrastim & tbo-filgrastim) IV (filgrastim only) Nursing considerations First dose should be administered at least 24 hours after chemotherapy Avoid use 24 hours before chemotherapy is administered Amgen, Inc., 2014; Teva Oncology, Pegfilgrastim (Neulasta ) Route of administration Subcutaneous Nursing Considerations Longer half life 1 dose equivalent to 11 daily injections of G-CSF Self regulating Administer as single 6 mg injection once per chemotherapy cycle Do not administer in the period beginning 14 days before or until 24 hours after administration of myelosuppressive chemotherapy Amgen, Inc., More on neutropenia on day 2 during the Myelosuppression and Fatigue content More on leukemia's (too many WBC) during day 3 lectures. The Immune System How does it learn to adapt? How can we utilize it to help combat cancer? 12
13 The Immune System The immune system is an integrated system that has four primary functions: Protection Surveillance Homeostasis Regulation Immune System: Innate versus Adaptive Immunity Innate Features Primary defense Non-specific No memory Responses Inflammatory response: Phagocytic cells respond to bacteria, fungus, and parasites Adaptive Secondary defense Specific Has memory Lymphocytes respond: T-cells: surveillance, rejection, virus B-cells: antibody, virus, bacteria Components Skin and mucous membranes Phagocytic cells Complement system Lymphoid system Lymphocytes Antibodies Structures of the Immune system Skin & Mucous Membranes Mechanical barrier Intact Shedding epidermis and mucosal cells Chemical barrier ph of skin Secretions of antimicrobial chemicals (in saliva, mucus, tears and sweat) Lymphoid system 13
14 Innate / Natural immunity Cellular Components of the Immune System Natural Killer cells (CD56 + ) Lymphocytes Lack markers found on B and T cells Kill tumor cells and virally infected cells without previous exposure Non-specific: can respond to a variety of antigens Part of the innate immune system Antigen Presenting Cells (APC s) -Help lymphocytes recognize antigens on foreign cells (including cancer cells) -Include: monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells Immune System: Monocytes Monocyte patrol the bloodstream sample surroundings Present antigen of ingested material Secrete cytokines If absent: fungal infections 14
15 Immune system: Macrophage Greek: big eaters, from makros "large" + phagein "eat Found in tissue Versatile Present antigens Scavenge Dendritic Cell Also called Antigen Presenting Cell (APC) Recognized as major cells in the immune system 1973 Phagocytic cells Present antigen of ingested material Single cell can activate 100-3,000 T cells Adaptive Immunity Humoral immunity Utilizes B lymphocytes, memory B cells and plasma cells End result is production of immunoglobulin's Cell-mediated immunity Mediated by T-cells and cytokines No antibodies involved but uses cytotoxic T-cells (CD8 + ) and Helper T-cells (CD4 + ) Lymphocytes Specific/Adaptive immunity Differentiate between self and non-self (self tolerance) T Lymphocytes Cell mediated immunity B Lymphocytes Humoral immunity 20% of total WBC count 15
16 B (Bone Marrow) Lymphocytes Humoral/Specific Immunity Plasma cell precursors These respond to antigens and produce immunoglobulins Immunoglobulins (A.K.A. antibodies) are protein products of plasma cells 5 major immunoglobulins Matures in Bone marrow Normal: cells/mm 3 T (Thymus) Lymphocyte Cellular/Specific Immunity Cytotoxic T cells (CD8 + ) Kill foreign cells and cells that have viral infections T-Helper cells (CD4 + ) Stimulate B cells, call in phagocytes and activate other T cells T-regulatory cells/suppressor T Interfere with immune response, work to prevent development of autoimmunity Memory T-cells Recognize specific antigens Matures in Thymus Activated when APC presents antigen Normal: cells/mm 3 Immune System Role in Cancer Prevention/Control Detect and destroy cancer cells through recognition of non-self Cancer cells have non-self antigens on surface tumor associated antigens Immunocompromised have > incidence of cancer Theory of how malignant cells elude immune system Internalize cell-surface Ag Glycoproteins cover-up antigenic markers Tumor cells closely resemble normal cells Fast Facts Immunosuppresion associated with increased risk of malignancy Patients who had a strong immune response that infiltrated some specific types of tumors with T-cells or NK cells have a more favorable prognosis 16
