Do you utilize GCSF during pelvic chemoradiation therapy for cervical cancer or avoid it due to concern for paradoxical neutropenia from concomitant radiation + GCSF?

Based on ANC count, duration, or fractions of RT completed, we have done neupogen to avoid delay of RT and keep total time within 7 to 8 weeks (timed administration of stimulant on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday).
