OBJECTIVE
Given that the prognosis of recurrent malignant glioma (MG) remains poor, improving quality of life (QoL) through symptom management is important. Meta-analyses establishing antiemetic guidelines have demonstrated the superiority of palonosetron (PAL) over older 5-hydroxytryptamine
OBJECTIVE
This study sought to prospectively determine the frequency of delayed nausea and vomiting with irinotecan-based chemotherapy following day 1 prophylaxis with a 5-HT3 receptor antagonist and dexamethasone.
METHODS
Patients with colorectal cancer aged ≥ 18 years with ECOG performance status
This meta-analysis was performed to compare the effects and toxicities between irinotecan/platinum (IP) and etoposide/platinum (EP) regimens as the fist-line treatment of patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (E-SCLC). A systematic search was made of MEDLINE, Cochrane, ISI Web of
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate three technologies for the management of advanced colorectal cancer: (1) first-line irinotecan combination [with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)] or second-line monotherapy; (2) first- or second-line oxaliplatin combination (again, with 5-FU); and (3) raltitrexed, where 5-FU is
OBJECTIVE
To assess the rate of R(0) resection of liver metastases achieved after chemotherapy with FOLFIRINOX.
METHODS
Patients with histologically proven primary colorectal cancer and bidimensionally measurable liver metastasis, not fully resectable based on technical inability to achieve R(0)
UNASSIGNED
This randomized phase III study was designed to compare the efficacy and safety of irinotecan plus cisplatin (IP) over etoposide plus cisplatin (EP) in Korean patients with extensive-disease small-cell lung cancer (SCLC).
UNASSIGNED
Patients were randomly assigned to receive IP, composed
BACKGROUND
Tolerability to irinotecan may be explained by pharmacogenomic polymorphisms. The purpose of this pharmacogenetic trial was to study the relevance of thymidylate synthase (TS) genotyping and of the isoform 1A1 of uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase (UGT1A1) in order to tailor a
The safety of front-line chemotherapies for the treatment of extensive stage small-cell lung cancer (ED-SCLC) is uncertain. We carried out a network meta-analysis to compare the toxicity of different therapies for ED-SCLC.
We searched EMBASE, PubMed, CENTRAL and clinicaltrials.gov. We performed
BACKGROUND
It is unclear whether etoposide/cisplatin (EP) regimen is the optimal chemotherapy regimen in the treatment patients with extensive small cell lung cancer (SCLC), this study was aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of patients with extensive SCLC treated with irinotecan/cisplatin
BACKGROUND
Gefitinib potently inhibits neuroblastoma proliferation in vitro, and the gefitinib/irinotecan combination shows greater than additive activity against neuroblastoma xenografts. This Phase II pilot study estimated the rate of response to two courses of intravenous irinotecan plus oral
OBJECTIVE
To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), toxicities, and suitable dose for weekly 1-h paclitaxel combined with weekly cisplatin and irinotecan to treat advanced gastrointestinal malignancies.
METHODS
Thirty patients with metastatic or locally advanced (unresectable or recurrent)
OBJECTIVE
Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) has been shown to be expressed in a variety of tumors including pancreatic cancer. The combination of gemcitabine and irinotecan is active in pancreatic cancer. The purpose of this study is to determine the toxicity and response rate to the addition of the
OBJECTIVE
IHL-305 is a novel PEGylated liposome containing irinotecan. This study examined the safety profile and pharmacokinetics of IHL-305 and established the maximum tolerated dose and recommended phase II dose (RP2D).
METHODS
In a standard 3 + 3 design, IHL-305 was administered IV on day 1 of a
OBJECTIVE
To assess the efficacy of irinotecan (CPT-11) in the treatment of advanced colorectal cancer in both chemotherapy-naive and pretreated patients.
METHODS
Two hundred thirteen patients (aged 18 to 75 years) with metastatic colorectal cancer, World Health Organization (WHO) performance status
A Phase I study was performed to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), toxicities, and pharmacokinetic profile of irinotecan (CPT-11) and its active metabolites when given on a once-every-3-week schedule. Thirty-four patients with advanced refractory solid malignancies were treated with CPT-11
