Little evidence exists regarding the emetogenicity of chemotherapy in pediatric patients. This study describes the prevalence of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) in pediatric patients receiving etoposide plus ifosfamide over 5 days, a common pediatric This meta-analysis was performed to compare the effects and toxicities between irinotecan/platinum (IP) and etoposide/platinum (EP) regimens as the fist-line treatment of patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (E-SCLC). A systematic search was made of MEDLINE, Cochrane, ISI Web of
UNASSIGNED
This randomized phase III study was designed to compare the efficacy and safety of irinotecan plus cisplatin (IP) over etoposide plus cisplatin (EP) in Korean patients with extensive-disease small-cell lung cancer (SCLC).

Patients were randomly assigned to receive IP, composed
From 1998 to 2001, 5 consecutive cases of AML/TMDS entered our hospital and achieved complete remission (CR) with continuous drip infusion of low-dose etoposide and low-dose Ara-C combined with mitoxantrone (MEtA regimen). The ages of the 5 patients (4 males and 1 female) ranged 32 to 50 years-old,
The anti-leukemic effect of etoposide is well documented. High-dose etoposide 60 mg/kg in combination with fractionated total body irradiation (TBI), usually single fractions of 1.2 Gy up to a total of 13.2 Gy, is used as conditioning therapy for allogeneic stem cell transplantation. Most studies of
Eighteen patients with advanced germ-cell cancer (12 primary gonadal, six extragonadal) that was refractory to vinblastine (V), cisplatin (P), and bleomycin (B) were treated with Etoposide (VP-16-213) and cisplatin +/- bleomycin sulfate +/- doxorubicin hydrochloride. All patients experienced nausea,
A 61-year-old female with recurrent endometrial cancer (serous papillary adenocarcinoma) was treated with etoposide because the pelvic tumor progressively increased in size with external beam irradiation. The etoposide (25 mg/day) was given orally for 10 days; the tumor decreased in size. And after
The efficacy and toxicity of cisplatin/etoposide and carboplatin/etoposide combinations along with thoracic irradiation were prospectively assessed in patients with small cell lung cancer. Both combinations were equally effective. However, the carboplatin/etoposide regimen caused significantly less
In order to define the maximum tolerance level of combined carboplatin/etoposide dosage, patients with extensive stage small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) were treated with a fixed dose of carboplatin (300 mg/m2 iv on day 1) and escalating doses of etoposide starting with 80 mg/m2 iv on days 1-3. Five
Sixty patients who developed persistent or metastatic gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) received primary oral etoposide therapy (VP 16-213). Twelve patients had metastatic GTD. Fifty-nine patients achieved biochemical remission. One patient had marked nausea and vomiting and the therapy was
Forty-three patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) received treatment with oral etoposide 50 mg/day for 21 consecutive days every 4 weeks. Eighteen patients (42%) experienced hematological responses, including 12 of 17 (70%) patients with chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML). Three of five
One hundred and seven patients (median age 56) with cisplatin-resistant ovarian carcinomas were included in a phase II study with ifosfamide (5 g/m2) and etoposide (300 mg/m2) every three weeks. The first 30 patients received a 5-day regimen: 100 mg/m2 etoposide (i.v.) repeated in three days
Oral administration of etoposide 50 mg daily for 21 days was studied in 83 patients with malignant lymphoma who were not indicated for intensive treatment. Dose escalation to 75 mg was allowed for previously untreated cases and those with body surface over 1.5 m2. The majority of patients were:
Thirty-eight women with primarily advanced (n = 10) or recurrent (n = 28) cervical carcinoma were treated with cisplatin (30 mg/m2/day intravenously) and etoposide (60 mg/m2/day intravenously) for 3 days followed by oral etoposide, 50 mg daily for 7 days, repeated at 28-day intervals. The response
Prolonged fractionated oral administration of etoposide may present a theoretical advantage over intravenous administration of the bolus. This phase I trial was carried out to determine the recommended duration of oral etoposide in combination with a fixed dose of carboplatin. Nineteen patients with
