OBJECTIVE
To determine the response rate, time to treatment failure, and toxicity of phenylacetate in patients with recurrent malignant glioma and to identify plasma concentrations achieved during repeated continuous infusion of this agent.
METHODS
Adult patients with recurrent malignant glioma were
Sodium phenylacetate (PA) and sodium phenylbutyrate (PB) are aromatic fatty acids that can effect differentiation in a variety of cell lines at doses that may be clinically attainable. We have studied the impact of these two agents on lineage- and differentiation stage-specific antigen expression,
OBJECTIVE
To compare two different infusion schedules of phenylacetate (PA) in patients with primary brain tumors and to assess the feasibility of the administration in a multi-institutional setting.
METHODS
Adult patients with recurrent primary brain tumors were treated with PA on two different
BACKGROUND
The growth-inhibiting and differentiating effects of sodium phenylacetate against hematopoietic and solid tumor cell lines has aroused clinical interest in its use as an anticancer drug. In an earlier Phase I trial of phenylacetate aimed at maintaining serum drug concentrations in the
Phenylacetate is a naturally occurring plasma component that suppresses the growth of tumor cells and induces differentiation in vitro. To evaluate the in vivo potential and preventive and therapeutic antitumor efficacy of sodium phenylacetate against malignant brain tumors, Fischer 344 rats (n =
Phenylacetate (PA) inhibits the growth of tumor cells in vitro and in vivo and shows promise as a relatively nontoxic agent for cancer treatment. A recent report shows that prolonged exposure of cells to low concentrations of PA can enhance the radiation response of brain tumor cells in vitro,
Sodium phenylacetate (NaPa) and some bisphosphonates demonstrated antiproliferative and proapoptotic properties against cancer. We have previously shown that NaPa inhibited cell proliferation of MCF7-ras tumor breast cells both in vitro and in vivo. On the other hand, bisphosphonate activities have
An aromatic fatty acid, phenylacetate (PA), has been shown to have cytostatic, antitumor and cell differentiation-inducing effects on various kinds of tumors. Previously, we have demonstrated cell growth inhibition, malignant phenotype reduction and cell differentiation effects of sodium
Differentiation therapy may provide an alternative for treatment of cancers that do not respond to cytotoxic chemotherapy or hormonal manipulations. This hypothesis led us to evaluate the effect of a nontoxic differentiation inducer, sodium phenylacetate (NaPA), on hormone-refractory prostate
The aromatic fatty acids phenylacetate (PA) and phenylbutyrate (PB) are novel antitumour agents currently under clinical evaluation. Their ability to induce tumour differentiation in laboratory models and their low clinical toxicity profile makes them promising candidates for combination with
OBJECTIVE
Phenylacetate (PA) and its derivatives constitute a group of small aromatic fatty acids that have been of considerable interest due to their anticancer properties in a number of experimental systems. We previously showed that PA can inhibit the growth of estrogen receptor (ER)+ breast
Agents that induce HIV-1 out of latency would be useful adjuvants for currently available anti-retroviral therapy. We report that nanomolar concentrations of 12-deoxyphorbol 13-phenylacetate (DPP), an anti-tumor-promoting phorbol ester originally isolated from a West African plant, induce the
12-Deoxyphorbol-13-phenylacetate (dPP) is the prototype for a new class of phorbol derivatives that function as protein kinase C (PKC) activators with potent anti-tumor-promoting activity. To explore the mechanism of action of dPP, we have conducted detailed analyses of the translocation and
The prostatic-specific antigen (PSA) is the tumor marker most widely relied upon for the monitoring of patients with prostate cancer. Recently, declines in the serum concentrations of PSA have been advocated as a surrogate marker of tumor response in clinical trials of investigational antitumor
Phenylacetate (PA) and related aromatic fatty acids induce antiproliferation and differentiation of cancer cell; they have potent anti-tumor properties with relatively low toxicity. To search for more potent analogues of PA, PA derivatives have been synthesized. In this study, we investigated the
