The programme was subsequently expanded to include evaluations of carcinogenic risks associated with exposures to complex mixtures, life-style factors and biological and physical agents, as well as those in specific occupations. The objective of the programme is to elaborate and publish in the form of monographs critical reviews of data on carcinogenicity for agents to which humans are known to be exposed and on specific exposure situations; to evaluate these data in terms of human risk with the help of international working groups of experts in carcinogenesis and related fields; and to indicate where additional research efforts are needed. The lists of IARC evaluations are regularly updated and are available on Internet: http://www.iarc.fr/, under Publications. This project was supported by Cooperative Agreement 5 UO1 CA33193 awarded by the United States National Cancer Institute, Department of Health and Human Services. Additional support has been provided since 1986 by the European Commission, since 1993 by the United States National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences and since 1995 by the United States Environmental Protection Agency through Cooperative Agreement Assistance CR 824264. ©International Agency for Research on Cancer, 2000 Distributed by IARCPress (Fax: +33 4 72 73 83 02; E-mail: [email protected]) and by the World Health Organization Distribution and Sales, CH-1211 Geneva 27 (Fax: +41 22 791 4857; E-mail: [email protected]) Publications of the World Health Organization enjoy copyright protection in accordance with the provisions of Protocol 2 of the Universal Copyright Convention.

Inclusion of an agent in the Monographs does not imply that it is a carcinogen, only that the published data have been examined. Equally, the fact that an agent has not yet been evaluated in a monograph does not mean that it is not carcinogenic. The evaluations of carcinogenic risk are made by international working groups of independent scientists and are qualitative in nature. No recommendation is given for regulation or legislation. Anyone who is aware of published data that may alter the evaluation of the carcino- genic risk of an agent to humans is encouraged to make this information available to the Unit of Carcinogen Identification and Evaluation, International Agency for Research on Cancer, 150 cours Albert Thomas, 69372 Lyon Cedex 08, France, in order that the agent may be considered for re-evaluation by a future Working Group. Although every effort is made to prepare the monographs as accurately as possible, mistakes may occur. Readers are requested to communicate any errors to the Unit of Carcinogen Identification and Evaluation, so that corrections can be reported in future volumes. –1– IARC WORKING GROUP ON THE EVALUATION OF CARCINOGENIC RISKS TO HUMANS: SOME ANTIVIRAL AND ANTINEOPLASTIC DRUGS, AND OTHER PHARMACEUTICAL AGENTS Lyon, 12–19 October 1999 LIST OF PARTICIPANTS Members D.E.

The US Cutaneous Lymphoma Consortium, to improve clinical care of patients with SS and encourage controlled clinical trials of promising treatments, undertook a review of the published literature on therapeutic options for SS. An overview of the immunopathogenesis and standardized review of potential current treatment options for SS including metabolism, mechanism of action, overall efficacy in mycosis fungoides and SS, and common or concerning adverse effects is first discussed. The specific efficacy of each treatment for SS, both as monotherapy and combination therapy, is then reported using standardized criteria for both SS and response to therapy with the type of study defined by a modification of the US Preventive Services guidelines for evidence-based medicine.

  • Efficacy and Safety of Imiquimod for Verruca Planae: a Systematic Review
    Global Dermatology Research Article ISSN: 2056-7863 Efficacy and safety of imiquimod for verruca planae: A systematic review Xin-rui Zhang#, Bi-huan Xiao#, Rui-qun Qi*, and Xing-hua Gao* Department of Dermatology, No 1 Hospital of China Medical University, Shenyang 110001, PR China #These authors contributed equally to this work Abstract Objective: To assess the efficacy and safety of imiquimod for treating verruca planae. Methods: We searched the Pubmed, Cochrane Register of Controlled Trials, EMbase, CBM, CNKI and Wanfang databases (Chinese) to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs). We screened the retrieved studies according to the predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria, evaluated the quality of include studies, and performed meta-analyses using the Cochrane Collaboration’s RevMan 5.1. Software. Results: Twenty-six RCTs involving 2169 patients with verruca planae were included and assessed. At the end of the 6th and ≥8th week, the effective rate of topical imiquimod was obviously higher than that of control [ RR=1.42, 95%CI (1.27, 1.60), P <0.00001; RR=1.43, 95%CI (1.22,1.67), P<0.00001]. The effective rate of imiquimod cream was higher than tretinoin cream, tazarotene gel and other antiviral drugs. [RR=1.41, 95%CI (1.25, 1.59), P <0.00001; RR=1.76, 95%CI (1.48, 2.10), P<0.00001; RR=1.71, 95%CI (1.29, 2.26), P =0.0002]. However, the effectiverate of imiquimod cream was lower than 5-ALA-PDT (RR=0.6, 95%CI (0.5, 0.71), P<0.00001). Conclusions: The limited evidence demonstrates that topical imiquimod is safe and efficient.

  • The Phytochemistry of Cherokee Aromatic Medicinal Plants
    medicines Review The Phytochemistry of Cherokee Aromatic Medicinal Plants William N. Setzer 1,2 1 Department of Chemistry, University of Alabama in Huntsville, Huntsville, AL 35899, USA; [email protected]; Tel.: +1-256-824-6519 2 Aromatic Plant Research Center, 230 N 1200 E, Suite 102, Lehi, UT 84043, USA Received: 25 October 2018; Accepted: 8 November 2018; Published: 12 November 2018 Abstract: Background: Native Americans have had a rich ethnobotanical heritage for treating diseases, ailments, and injuries. Cherokee traditional medicine has provided numerous aromatic and medicinal plants that not only were used by the Cherokee people, but were also adopted for use by European settlers in North America. Methods: The aim of this review was to examine the Cherokee ethnobotanical literature and the published phytochemical investigations on Cherokee medicinal plants and to correlate phytochemical constituents with traditional uses and biological activities. Results: Several Cherokee medicinal plants are still in use today as herbal medicines, including, for example, yarrow (Achillea millefolium), black cohosh (Cimicifuga racemosa), American ginseng (Panax quinquefolius), and blue skullcap (Scutellaria lateriflora). This review presents a summary of the traditional uses, phytochemical constituents, and biological activities of Cherokee aromatic and medicinal plants. Conclusions: The list is not complete, however, as there is still much work needed in phytochemical investigation and pharmacological evaluation of many traditional herbal medicines. Keywords: Cherokee; Native American; traditional herbal medicine; chemical constituents; pharmacology 1. Introduction Natural products have been an important source of medicinal agents throughout history and modern medicine continues to rely on traditional knowledge for treatment of human maladies [1]. Traditional medicines such as Traditional Chinese Medicine [2], Ayurvedic [3], and medicinal plants from Latin America [4] have proven to be rich resources of biologically active compounds and potential new drugs.

Therapy with Pegylated Interferon or Combined with Cryosurgery in Condyloma Acuminata. Phase III Clinical Trial. Dermatol Res. 2019; 1(1); 1-8. ABSTRACT Background: The continuous recurrence of condyloma acuminata makes the constant search for necessary therapeutic alternatives. Patients and method: To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of pegylated interferon, alone or adjuvant for cryosurgery, in the condyloma acuminata an open clinical trial was carried out on 30 patients of the "Hermanos Ameijeiras" hospital, who were randomized to receive for 6 weeks (group A) only fortnightly cryosurgery, (group B) subcutaneous pegylated interferon, once a week, associated with fortnightly cryosurgery application or (group C) only subcutaneous pegylated interferon, once a week. The main variable was the percentage of recurrence at one year of follow-up, evaluated quarterly. There was also a rigorous control of adverse events. Results: At the end of the treatment 8/10 (80%) patients from group A, 10/10 (100%) from group B and 9/10 (90%) from group C were left without injuries.
