A new dosage formulation (ACR-CH), composed of aclarubicin (ACR) bound to fine activated carbon particles, has been developed for the treatment of lymph node metastases in breast cancer. ACR-CH is designed to (a) adsorb a great amount of aclarubicin and desorb in a free state; (b) distribute a
ACR-CH, which consists of aclarubicin (ACR) adsorbed onto activated carbon particles, was developed for locoregional chemotherapy for breast cancer. Thirty patients with breast cancer received an ACR (10 mg) injection intra- and peri-tumorally, either as ACR-CH or as ACR aqueous solution (ACR-AQ) 5
A new dosage formulation (ACR-CH), composed of aclarubicin (ACR) bound to fine activated carbon particles, was developed for the treatment of lymph node metastases in patients with breast cancer. In a mice experimental model, ACR-CH had superior therapeutic effects on lymph node metastases compared
Aclarubicin is an anthracycline antibiotic that differs from doxorubicin in its structure, mechanism of action, and preclinical toxicity profile, especially its reduced cardiotoxicity. We therefore conducted a side-by-side in vivo and in vitro trial of this agent in metastatic breast-cancer patients
A 46-year-old woman had undergone a mastectomy in 1994, and metastases to the lung, bones and liver were detected in 1998. Brain metastases were detected later. Chemotherapy consisting of docetaxel, aclarubicin and UFT was administered, and image diagnosis revealed that CR was achieved. The
We treated breast cancer patients with Ps node involvement using an extended surgery (Ps+Sc, n = 17, group A) combined with targeting chemotherapy and compared the survival rate by this method with that by the dissection of the Ps node alone (n = 23, group B) to assess the prognosis of advanced
Aclarubicin, discovered by Umezawa in 1975, is a new cytostatic anthracycline antibiotic. It is one of the anthracyclines with the lowest cardiotoxicity, it is not mutagenic and it stimulates differentiation of tumour cells. The therapeutic index of aclarubicin (efficacy related to toxicity) is
ACR-CH was injected prior to surgery of breast cancer. Incidence of black staining of regional lymph nodes and concentration of ACR in the nodes were examined in order to evaluate the usefulness of preoperative local injection of ACR-CH. 1) In 13 cases of extended radical mastectomy, black staining
Anthracyclines, including doxorubicin, epirubicin, daunorubicin and aclarubicin, are widely used as chemotherapeutic agents in the treatment of hematologic and solid tumor, including acute leukemia, lymphoma, breast cancer, gastric cancer, soft tissue sarcomas and ovarian cancer. In the cancer
