hypothermia/sarcoma

The effect of chlorpromazine on tumour progression and survival, when used as a modifier of chemotherapy response and toxicity, was studied in mice. The dosage was 15 mg/kg i.p., tested to produce rectal hypothermia within 1 hour, lasting for at least 8 hours, at an ambient temperature of 28 degrees

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to examine the efficacy and safety of a new digitized, controlled, scalp-cooling system to prevent chemotherapy-induced alopecia. METHODS Seventy-four female cancer patients who received 13 varying chemotherapy regimens were included in a nonrandomized pilot

OBJECTIVE Cannabinoid CB(2) agonists have been shown to alleviate behavioral signs of inflammatory and neuropathic pain in animal models. AM1241, a CB(2) agonist, does not demonstrate central nervous system side effects seen with CB(1) agonists such as hypothermia and catalepsy. Metastatic bone
