We investigated the antiemetic effect, safety and usefulness of granisetron tablet on nausea/vomiting induced by cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C) in the chemotherapy for tumors in the hematopoietic organs. Out of 52 cases with malignant tumors in the hematopoietic organs including acute leukemia, 30 in
Beta-thioguanine deoxyriboside (betaTGdR) is a purine nucleoside derivative which was studied alone or in combination with arabinosyl cytosine (Ara-C) in patients with solid tumors and acute leukemia. No significant responses were observed in 22 patients with solid tumors. The response rate with
Experience with high-dose cytosine arabinoside (HDAC) in pediatric solid tumors is limited. Sixteen children with solid tumors resistant to conventional therapies were registered in a pilot Pediatric Oncology Group (POG) study that required the administration of HDAC at 3 g/m2 every 12 hours for
A 39-year-old man with myotonic dystrophy consulted our hospital for nausea, vomiting and dizziness that occurred after 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Reexamination of OGTT revealed remarkable hyperinsulinemia (622 microU/ml) followed by reactive hypoglycemia (50 mg/dl) and such
A comparative trial of a combination of daunorubicin and cytosine arabinoside (Regimen A) and a combination of aclarubicin and cytosine arabinoside (Regimen B) was performed. Sixteen patients with acute non-lymphocytic leukemia, previously untreated, were entered into this study. Five of 8 patients
Relapses in nine patients with acute myelocytic leukemia were treated with a combination of aclarubicin (ACR) and cytosine arabinoside (ara-C). ACR, 40 mg/m2/day, was administered daily by intravenous injection from day 1 to day 3 and ara-C, 60-80 mg/m2/day, divided into 2 doses, was given every 12
A prospective randomized study was conducted to compare the efficacy and toxicity of two anthracyclines for the treatment of patients with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). Fifty-eight patients were randomized and received induction therapy consisting of cytosine arabinoside (AraC) 100 mg/m2/day for
Ventriculolumbar perfusion chemotherapy with methotrexate (MTX) and cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C) was performed in six patients with meningeal dissemination of malignant disease. Ten mg of MTX and 40 mg of Ara-C were injected via Ommaya reservoir every 12 hours for 3 days. During perfusion, we
Twenty-six previously untreated patients with acute non-lymphocytic leukemia (ANLL) were treated with oral idarubicin and cytosine-arabinoside (Ara-C). The median age of the patients was 44 years (range, 11-72). In 23 of the 26 patients a hypoplastic marrow, with a peripheral white cell count of
Thirty-seven patients with acute leukemia in relapse were treated with a three-drug combination that included a 3- or 4-day course of AMSA with total doses ranging from 600 mg/m2 to 740 mg/m2 I.V., cytosine arabinoside 25 mg/m2 I.V. followed by 200 mg/m2 by continuous infusion daily for 5 days, and
Thirty patients with chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase and less than 1 year from diagnosis were treated with a combination of interferon alfa-2a (IFN) 9 million units daily continuously and intermittent low-dose cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C) 20 mg/m2 daily for 21 days every 42 days. The
In a clinical phase II study the combination of high dose cytosine arabinoside and mitoxantrone (HAM) was applied to 24 patients with refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). All patients had received a standardized first line treatment and were considered refractory against conventional
Between January 1986 and September 1989, 28 patients over the age of 14 years were treated with a combination of mitoxantrone, cytosine-arabinoside (Ara-C) and 6-thioguanine (MAT) at the Kuwait Cancer Control Centre (KCCC). All patients were newly diagnosed cases of acute non-lymphoblastic leukemia
Patients with Philadelphia (Ph) chromosome-positive chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) and on interferon (IFN)-alpha-2c treatment for at least two months were entered in the present pilot study. IFN-alpha treatment was maintained identically and cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C) was added at monthly
In the present study 55 patients with refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) (n = 44) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) (n = 11) were treated with high-dose cytosine arabinoside (HD-ara-C) and mitoxantrone (HAM) to assess the toxicity and antileukemic activity of the two-drug combination. All
