OBJECTIVES: I. Assess the efficacy of recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) in raising the absolute neutrophil count, platelet count, and hemoglobin level in patients with inherited bone marrow failure syndromes. II. Assess the efficacy of a reduced maintenance dose in patients who respond to daily G-CSF. III. Assess the toxic effects of G-CSF in these patients. IV. Measure bone marrow progenitor colonies before and after G-CSF. V. Measure CD34-positive cells in marrow and blood before and after G-CSF using flow cytometry and immunohistochemistry.
