The effects of etoposide (VP-16) and teniposide (VM-26) have been evaluated in human epidermoid carcinoma cells (A431, ME180 and HEp3) grown as exponential and plateau phase cultures. A significant increase in resistance to both these chemotherapeutic agents was observed in unfed plateau compared
A randomized study comparing teniposide (VM-26) and etoposide (VP-16) was performed to investigate whether there are any differences in the activity and toxicity of these two analogs in small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). Only previously untreated patients with SCLC were included; 46 and 48 patients
OBJECTIVE
EP regimen[etoposide (VP-16) + cisplatin (DDP)] is a standard regimen for treatment of small cell lung cancer (SCLC), but the cure rate is still low. Teniposide (VM-26) is highly active single agent for SCLC as VP-16, and penetratable through blood-brain barrier. This clinical trial was
Teniposide is one of the most active agents in small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Because of the experimental evidence of synergistic activity between teniposide and methotrexate and between vincristine and methotrexate, 34 SCLC patients were treated with a combination of teniposide, vincristine,
Sixteen patients with intracerebral tumors received intraarterial cisplatin, teniposide, and BCNU combined with intravenous cisplatin, teniposide, and cytosine arabinoside. Oral glycerol and intravenous mannitol were given along with the intravenous chemotherapy in an attempt to increase drug
Although teniposide activity in glioma was reported as early as 1971, it is only within the last 2 to 3 years that its effectiveness in small cell lung cancer and, most dramatically, in associated brain metastasis, has undergone long overdue systematic investigation. The drug appears to enjoy
The objectives of this study were to determine the characteristics of pharmacokinetics of teniposide (VM-26) instilled intraperitoneally with three dosages (100 mg, 150 mg and 200 mg) and to evaluate its toxicity. Twelve patients with ovarian cancer were divided into three groups: teniposide 100 mg
Relatively few patients with gynecologic malignancies have been included in trials with teniposide given as a single agent. For 109 patients with advanced ovarian cancer treated with various doses and schedules, an overall response rate of 12% was reported. Most patients were heavily pretreated and
Over 50% of patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC) will develop symptomatic brain metastases during the course of their disease. Results of whole brain radiotherapy, the standard treatment, are rather poor and relapses are frequent. Thus, new modes of therapy are urgently needed for these
In 23 evaluable patients with advanced ovarian epithelial cancer refractory to combination therapy with cisplatin and an alkylating agent, teniposide (VM-26) was administered as a short-term i.v. infusion at a dose of 100 mg/m2 on days 1 and 2, every 3 weeks. Toxicity was moderate and comparable to
Teniposide (VM 26) as a single agent has shown promising results in the treatment of patients with small cell lung cancer. We treated 32 (30 evaluable) non-pretreated elderly and poor prognosis patients with small cell lung cancer with teniposide 100 mg/day (30 min infusion) days 1-5, every 3-4
Fifty patients with small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) were treated with teniposide (VM26) at 120 to 140 mg/m2 on days 1, 3, and 5, every 3 weeks. Twelve elderly patients were administered VM26 as first-line chemotherapy. Toxicity was manageable, myelosuppression being the major side effect. The response
Twenty-eight patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC), 12 with limited (LD) and 16 with extensive (ED) disease, 22 of them relapsed to first-line treatment and 6 not responsive, were treated with a single-agent second-line treatment consisting of teniposide (VM26) 60 mg/m2, i.v. on days 1 to 5,
Teniposide, VM-26 (Vumon), was administered in a dose of 60 mg/m2 on days 1 to 5 every third week to 36 patients with histologically confirmed small-cell lung cancer. None had previously received chemotherapy or radiotherapy. The median age was 73 years (range, 52 to 79). Thirty-three patients were
Fifty-five patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) were entered into this phase II randomized study for evaluating three new agents: gallium nitrate, amonafide and teniposide. The patients had to have ECOG performance status 0 or 1, no prior chemotherapy, and adequate
