Options for the Treatment of Gemcitabine-Resistant Advanced Pancreatic Cancer
JOP. J Pancreas (Online) 2010 Mar 5; 11(2):113-123. REVIEW Options for the Treatment of Gemcitabine-Resistant Advanced Pancreatic Cancer Ioannis Gounaris, Kamarul Zaki, Pippa Corrie Oncology Centre, Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Trust. Cambridge, United Kingdom Summary Context Pancreatic cancer is noteworthy in that the number of patients dying from the disease is roughly equal to the number diagnosed. For more than a decade, gemcitabine has constituted the standard of care for the palliative treatment of the majority of patients who present with metastatic or relapsed disease, although the survival gains are limited. Despite a median survival of less than 6 months, there is a significant proportion of advanced pancreatic cancer patients who progress on gemcitabine that remains fit and these patients are candidates for second-line treatment. Methods The OVID MEDLINE database was searched from 1950 to present using the MeSH terms “pancreatic neoplasms”, “drug treatment” and “gemcitabine”. After excluding non-relevant results, 31 published studies were identified. These results were supplemented by searching the last three (2007-2009) American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Proceedings of Annual Meetings for studies published only in abstract form and reviewing reference lists of published articles. Results and discussion The evidence for second line treatments of metastatic pancreatic cancer consists mostly of single arm, small phase II studies. Oxaliplatin-fluoropyrimidine combinations appear promising and have shown increased survival compared to best supportive care. As the molecular pathways governing pancreatic cancer are unravelled, novel targeted therapies may offer the greatest promise for this disease either given alone, combined with one another, or with cytotoxic agents. -

LEUKEMIA CHEMOTHERAPY REGIMENS (Part 1 of 2) the Selection, Dosing, and Administration of Anti-Cancer Agents and the Management of Associated Toxicities Are Complex
LEUKEMIA CHEMOTHERAPY REGIMENS (Part 1 of 2) The selection, dosing, and administration of anti-cancer agents and the management of associated toxicities are complex. Drug dose modifications and schedule and initiation of supportive care interventions are often necessary because of expected toxicities and because of individual patient variability, prior treatment, and comorbidities. Thus, the optimal delivery of anti-cancer agents requires a healthcare delivery team experienced in the use of such agents and the management of associated toxicities in patients with cancer. The chemotherapy regimens below may include both FDA-approved and unapproved uses/regimens and are provided as references only to the latest treatment strategies. Clinicians must choose and verify treatment options based on the individual patient. REGIMEN DOSING Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) Induction Therapy Cytarabine (Cytosar-U; ARA-C) + Days 1–3: An anthracycline (eg, daunorubicin at least 60mg/m2/day IV, an anthracycline idarubicin 10–12mg/m2/day IV, or mitoxantrone 10–12mg/m2/day IV), plus (daunorubicin [Cerubidine], Days 1–7: Cytarabine 100–200mg/m2/day continuous IV infusion. idarubicin [Idamycin], OR mitoxantrone [Novantrone])1, 2 Days 1–3: An anthracycline (eg, daunorubicin 45mg/m2/day IV, idarubicin 12mg/m2/day IV, or mitoxantrone 12mg/m2/day IV), plus Days 1–7: Cytarabine 100mg/m2/day continuous IV infusion. Intermediate-dose cytarabine3 Cycle 1 Days 1–7: Cytarabine 200mg/m2/day continuous IV infusion, plus Days 5–6: Idarubicin 12mg/m2/day IV. Cycle 2 Days 1–6: Cytarabine 1,000mg/m2 continuous IV infusion for 3 hrs twice daily, plus Days 3, 5 and 7: Amsacrine 120mg/m2/day. -
LEUSTATIN (Cladribine) Injection Should Be Administered Under the Supervision of a Qualified Physician Experienced in the Use of Antineoplastic Therapy
LEUSTATIN (cladribine) Injection For Intravenous Infusion Only WARNING LEUSTATIN (cladribine) Injection should be administered under the supervision of a qualified physician experienced in the use of antineoplastic therapy. Suppression of bone marrow function should be anticipated. This is usually reversible and appears to be dose dependent. Serious neurological toxicity (including irreversible paraparesis and quadraparesis) has been reported in patients who received LEUSTATIN Injection by continuous infusion at high doses (4 to 9 times the recommended dose for Hairy Cell Leukemia). Neurologic toxicity appears to demonstrate a dose relationship; however, severe neurological toxicity has been reported rarely following treatment with standard cladribine dosing regimens. Acute nephrotoxicity has been observed with high doses of LEUSTATIN (4 to 9 times the recommended dose for Hairy Cell Leukemia), especially when given concomitantly with other nephrotoxic agents/therapies. DESCRIPTION LEUSTATIN (cladribine) Injection (also commonly known as 2-chloro-2΄-deoxy- β -D-adenosine) is a synthetic antineoplastic agent for continuous intravenous infusion. It is a clear, colorless, sterile, preservative-free, isotonic solution. LEUSTATIN Injection is available in single-use vials containing 10 mg (1 mg/mL) of cladribine, a chlorinated purine nucleoside analog. Each milliliter of LEUSTATIN Injection contains 1 mg of the active ingredient and 9 mg (0.15 mEq) of sodium chloride as an inactive ingredient. The solution has a pH range of 5.5 to 8.0. Phosphoric -

Present address: Department of Food, Environmental and Nutritional Sciences, University of Milan, y via Mangiagalli 25, I-20133 Milano, Italy. Received: 7 March 2019; Accepted: 8 April 2019; Published: 12 April 2019 Abstract: Despite the impressive progress in nucleoside chemistry to date, the synthesis of nucleoside analogues is still a challenge. Chemoenzymatic synthesis has been proven to overcome most of the constraints of conventional nucleoside chemistry. A purine nucleoside phosphorylase from Aeromonas hydrophila (AhPNP) has been used herein to catalyze the synthesis of Ribavirin, Tecadenoson, and Cladribine, by a “one-pot, one-enzyme” transglycosylation, which is the transfer of the carbohydrate moiety from a nucleoside donor to a heterocyclic base. As the sugar donor, 7-methylguanosine iodide and its 20-deoxy counterpart were synthesized and incubated either with the “purine-like” base or the modified purine of the three selected APIs. -

COMPARISON of the WHO ATC CLASSIFICATION & Ephmra/Intellus Worldwide ANATOMICAL CLASSIFICATION
COMPARISON OF THE WHO ATC CLASSIFICATION & EphMRA/Intellus Worldwide ANATOMICAL CLASSIFICATION: VERSION June 2019 2 Comparison of the WHO ATC Classification and EphMRA / Intellus Worldwide Anatomical Classification The following booklet is designed to improve the understanding of the two classification systems. The development of the two systems had previously taken place separately. EphMRA and WHO are now working together to ensure that there is a convergence of the 2 systems rather than a divergence. In order to better understand the two classification systems, we should pay attention to the way in which substances/products are classified. WHO mainly classifies substances according to the therapeutic or pharmaceutical aspects and in one class only (particular formulations or strengths can be given separate codes, e.g. clonidine in C02A as antihypertensive agent, N02C as anti-migraine product and S01E as ophthalmic product). EphMRA classifies products, mainly according to their indications and use. Therefore, it is possible to find the same compound in several classes, depending on the product, e.g., NAPROXEN tablets can be classified in M1A (antirheumatic), N2B (analgesic) and G2C if indicated for gynaecological conditions only. The purposes of classification are also different: The main purpose of the WHO classification is for international drug utilisation research and for adverse drug reaction monitoring. This classification is recommended by the WHO for use in international drug utilisation research. The EphMRA/Intellus Worldwide classification has a primary objective to satisfy the marketing needs of the pharmaceutical companies. Therefore, a direct comparison is sometimes difficult due to the different nature and purpose of the two systems. -

Unfortunately, immunosuppressive agent-related neurotoxicity is 14 commonly occurred in clinical situations, with the majority of neurotoxicity cases caused by CNIs. 15 The possible mechanisms whereby CNIs cause neurotoxicity include: increasing the permeability 16 or injury of the blood-brain barrier, alterations of mitochondrial function, and alterations in 17 electrophysiological state. Other immunosuppressants can also induce neuropsychiatric 18 complications. For example, mTOR inhibitors induce seizures; mycophenolate mofetil induces 19 depression and headache; methotrexate affects the central nervous system; mouse monoclonal 20 immunoglobulin G2 antibody against cluster of differentiation 3 also induces headache; and 21 patients using corticosteroids usually experience cognitive alteration. -
