These microspheres were about 200 ¡anin diameter and contained 10% (w/w) University Hospital. Briefly, aclarubicin hydrochloride and isopropyl aclarubicin. A single dose of polylactic acid microspheres containing ACR myristate, a medium-chain fatty acid ester, were dissolved in 7.5% (50-100 mg of ACR) was administered 1 to 8 times with a mean of 2.2 polylactic acid-methylene chloride. The resultant solution was dispersed in 1% gelatin solution and sterilized in an autoclave for 20 min at doses (a total of 160 treatments) in 62 patients. Antitumor effects were 120°C;thismixture was then stirred with a magnetic stirrer at 500 rpm observed from the decrease in serum a-fetoprotein levels (82.1% of the patients) and in two dimensional size of tumor on computed tomography for 1 h. The resultant microspheres were collected by filtration through (93.6%). The cumulative survival rate was 54.3% at 1 year, 24.6% at 2 a membrane filter (3 //m pore diameter), rinsed 2 to 3 times (in 1 liter years, and 19.2% at 3 years, respectively, among 59 patients with of distilled water), and dried under reduced pressure for 5 days.

Synergistic interaction between these two drugs was suggested by taxane-induced upregulation of thymidine phosphorylase. We, therefore, evaluated the antitumour activity and toxicities of paclitaxel and capecitabine as first-line therapy in patients with advanced gastric cancer (AGC). Patients with histologically confirmed unresectable or metastatic AGC were treated À2 À2 with capecitabine 825 mg m p.o. twice daily on days 1–14 and paclitaxel 175 mg m i.v. on day 1 every 3 weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicities. Between June 2002 and May 2004, 45 patients, of median age 57 years (range ¼ 38–73 years), were treated with the combination of capecitabine and paclitaxel. After a median 6 cycles (range ¼ 1–9 cycles) of chemotherapy, 43 were evaluable for toxicity and response. A total of 2 patients showed complete response and 20 showed partial response making the overall response rate 48.9% (95% CI ¼ 30.3–63.5%).

These authors contribute equally to this paper. y Received: 7 April 2020; Accepted: 25 August 2020; Published: 10 September 2020 Abstract: Following the discovery of cisplatin over 50 years ago, platinum-based drugs have been a widely used and effective form of cancer therapy, primarily causing cell death by inducing DNA damage and triggering apoptosis. However, the dose-limiting toxicity of these drugs has led to the development of second and third generation platinum-based drugs that maintain the cytotoxicity of cisplatin but have a more acceptable side-effect profile. In addition to the creation of new analogs, tumor delivery systems such as liposome encapsulated platinum drugs have been developed and are currently in clinical trials. In this study, we have created the first PEGylated liposomal form of nedaplatin using thin film hydration. Nedaplatin, the main focus of this study, has been exclusively used in Japan for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer, head and neck, esophageal, bladder, ovarian and cervical cancer.

    CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION AND OUTLINE OF THIS THESIS INTRODUCTION Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), comprising Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis and IBD- 1 unclassified, are chronic recurrent inflammatory disorders of the (large) intestine with a heterogeneous, but often disabling disease presentation. The prevalence of IBD is increasing worldwide and medical therapies are introduced earlier to improve health-related quality of life and postpone surgical interventions1,2. This has led to the more extensive use of immunosuppressive therapies including biologicals and thiopurines. While the use of tioguanine was soon abandoned due to toxicity concerns3, over the years efficacy data on the use of azathioprine and mercaptopurine for the treatment of IBD has grown4,5. However, due to side effects and ineffectiveness, related to unprofitable metabolism, thiopurine therapy often fails; up to 50% of patients discontinues treatment within 2 years6. Increasing the knowledge on thiopurine metabolism may provide opportunities to further explore the therapeutic usefulness of thiopurines, which both from a patient’s perspective and a pharmacoeconomic perspective is essential. THIOPURINES In the 1950’s Gertrude Elion (1918-1999) worked as an assistant to George Hitchings (1905- 1998), both employees of Burroughs-Wellcome, focussing on the advent of drugs that inhibited cell growth without doing harm to the host cells. They discovered that purine bases are essential components of nucleic acids and vital for cell growth7. Subsequently, they designed the purine antagonists diaminopurine and tioguanine that blocked the synthesis of original nucleic acids and inhibited cell growth8. For the first time a successful treatment of leukaemia became available. Some years later Elion and colleagues also developed mercaptopurine, azathioprine, allopurinol, trimethoprim and acyclovir.

  • Towards the Reduction of Occupational Exposure To
    TOWARDS THE REDUCTION OF OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE TO CYTOTOXIC DRUGS by Cristian Vasile Barzan B.Sc. Simon Fraser University, 2007 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIRMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Occupational and Environmental Hygiene) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) October 2010 © Cristian Vasile Barzan, 2010 Abstract Background : One of the most powerful and widely used techniques in cancer treatment is the use of cytotoxic drugs in chemotherapy. These drugs are inherently hazardous with many of them causing carcinogenic, mutagenic or teratogenic health outcomes. Occupational exposure to cytotoxic drugs is of great concern due to their lack of selectivity between healthy and unhealthy cells. Widespread cytotoxic drug contamination has been reported in North America, Europe and Australia. Current cleaning protocols for hazardous antineoplastic drugs include the use of disinfectants and oxidizing agents, such as household bleach. Aim : The thesis project focused on two objectives: 1) hypothesize and confirm potential hazardous by- products arising from cleaning cyclophosphamide, a widely used cytotoxic drugs, with household bleach, a commonly used cleaning agent; 2) develop an effective and safe cleaning agent for cytotoxic drugs in order to prevent and eliminate exposure to these drugs. Methods : The gas chromatograph mass spectrum (GC/MS) was used to analyze the decomposition of cyclophosphamide by household bleach (5.25% hypochlorite). The reaction was conducted in a test-tube and the by-products extracted and derivatized prior to analysis. Multiple cleaning agent compositions were tested on 10x10cm stainless steel plates spiked with the two model cytotoxic drugs, cyclophosphamide and methotrexate.

Usually, the response to salvage chemotherapy significantly differs between sensitive and refractory relapse. Sensitive relapse is relatively chemosensitive and re-challenge with the same drugs as used in the initial chemotherapy has been used historically, while refractory relapse is extremely chemoresistant and its prognosis has been abysmal. To date, a number of clinical trials have been carried out for relapsed SCLC; however, the number of randomized trials is quite limited.
