Docetaxel(DTX)is a key drug for breast cancer treatment; however, its formulation contains alcohol, which can cause several problems. We have been preparing original DTX without using its accompanying alcohol-solubilizing solution since 2013 and switched to generic DTX without alcohol in 2015. In this study, we compared adverse events between the original and generic DTX, both of which did not contain alcohol. We retrospectively investigated the occurrence of adverse events in breast cancer patients who were treated with DTX(75 mg/m2)as neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy from January 2013 to December 2017. 201 patients participated in the study(75/126 in the original/generic groups). The incidence of febrile neutropenia, hypersensitivity reactions, and skin toxicities did not differ between the groups(p=0.620, 0.066, 0.205). The severity of edema and peripheral neuropathy was significantly worse in the patients receiving the generic DTX (p0.01,0.01). The findings suggest a difference in the incidence of edema and peripheral neuropathy following treatment with the original and generic DTX, regardless of the inclusion of alcohol. |
