glyoxal/vomiting

In a phase II study of methyl-glyoxal bis-guanylhydrazone (methyl-GAG) in patients with bi-dimensionally measurable metastases of renal cell cancer, 30 patients were given 500 mg/m2 weekly for at least 4 treatment cycles and were evaluable for response. Three patients (10%) achieved partial

We have tested methyl glyoxal bis-guanyl hydrazone (NSC 32946) for antitumor activity in patients with colorectal carcinoma and non-small cell bronchogenic carcinoma. The drug dose was 500 mg/m2 administered by single weekly injection, and with a provision dose escalation. No responses were seen in

Ten patients with AML refractory to anthracyclines and cytosine arabinoside were treated with vincristine 1.4 mg/m2 and methotrexate (MTX) 2.5 gm/m2 by intravenous (IV) bolus on day 1 [citrovorum factor (CF) rescue began 24 h later], BCNU 80 mg/m2, and cyclophosphamide 900 mg/m2 IV 36 h after MTX

Thirty-nine patients received 600 mg/m2 OF MGBG intravenously every week for the treatment of advanced refractory ovarian cancer. Twenty-seven of these received adequate trials, and only two had partial remissions lasting 3 1/2 and 4 months each. Toxicity was substantial, with severe hematologic

BACKGROUND During the standard heat sterilization process of lactate-buffered peritoneal dialysis (PD) solutions, glucose degrades to form compounds called glucose degradation products such as acetaldehyde, formaldehyde, or glyoxal. Despite evidence that these products may be responsible for some in
