Despite advances in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in recent years, the outcome of elderly AML patients with antecedent hematological disorders remains unsatisfactory. The present study describes a case of complete remission in an elderly patient with AML transformed from chronic
There is no consensus regarding the optimal second induction course regimen for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) refractory to an initial course of front-line induction. The CAG regimen (cytarabine, aclarubicin and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor) has shown promise for
In an attempt to improve the combined effects of hyperthermia and anti-cancer drugs, an intratumorous (i.t.) injection of the drugs was performed and its effect compared with that obtained by intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection. Using Lewis lung carcinoma growing in the legs of BDF1 mice, weakly toxic
Objective: To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of decitabine in combination with lower-dose CAG regimen (G-CSF, cytarabine and aclarubicin; D-CAG regimen) in the treatment of myelodysplastic syndromes with excess blasts (MDS-EB) and acute myeloid leukemia with myelodysplasia-related changes
We used the CAG regimen (low-dose cytarabine [10 mg/m2 per 12 hours, days 1-14], aclarubicin [14 mg/m2 per day, days 1-4], and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor [200 micrograms/m2 per day, days 1-14]) for the treatment of patients with primary resistant acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) and
50-year-old male was admitted to our hospital because of gingival bleeding and fever in August 1987. The leukocyte count was 13,300/microliters with 80.5% leukemic promyelocytes and bone marrow was hypercellular with 86.4% leukemic promyelocytes. A small number of mature neutrophils containing Auer
A phase II study of THP was performed in patients with advanced gastrointestinal cancer. The dose schedule was 25 to 40 mg/m2 i.v./cycle repeated every 3 to 4 weeks. One partial (PR) and one minor response (MR) were achieved in 16 evaluable patients with stomach cancer. A case of PR had previously
Selective deposition of lipiodol in primary and metastatic liver cancer, lung cancer, gallbladder cancer, pancreatic cancer and renal cancer was elucidated by plain X-ray film and CT. Selective delivery of anticancer agent, SMANCS was also proved by measurement of its biological activities of
