Multivariate Logistic Regression Analysis for ISR frequency per injections.

Variable ISR frequency per patients
Odd Ratio (95%CI) P value
Frequency of ISR
Fosaprepitant injection (Yes vs. No) 4.565 (1.750- 11.908) 0.0019
Age (< 50 vs. ≥ 50) 1.615 (0.525- 4.970) 0.4031
Chemotherapy regimen (AC vs (R-)CHOP) 2.810 (0.799- 9.882) 0.1073
Chemotherapy regimen (AC vs FEC) 3.401 (0.951-12.169) 0.0598
Body mass index (<22 vs. ≥ 22) 2.235 (0.729- 6.854) 0.1594
Frequency of treatment-required ISR
Fosaprepitant injection (Yes vs. No) 33.197 (4.113-267.916) 0.0010
Age (< 50 vs. ≥ 50) 0.934 (0.231- 3.776) 0.9234
Chemotherapy regimen (AC vs (R-)CHOP) 2.882 (0.645- 12.884) 0.1660
Chemotherapy regimen (AC vs FEC) 1.556 (0.289- 8.381) 0.6065
Body mass index (<22 vs. ≥ 22) 1.410 (0.350- 5.687) 0.6289

CI, confidence intervals; ISR, injection site reaction; AC, doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide;

(R-)CHOP, rituximab/cyclophosphamide/doxorubicin/vincristine/prednisolone;

and FEC, 5-fluorouracil/epirubicin/cyclophosphamide.
