In order to test the possible cardiac-sparing effect of doxorubicin administered by six-hour intravenous infusion and to prospectively evaluate the role of resting left ventricular ejection fraction in monitoring these patients, 33 women with advanced breast cancer were treated with combination

Cardiovascular safety profile and clinical experience with high-dose domperidone therapy for nausea and vomiting.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Domperidone is a dopamine receptor antagonist with peripheral prokinetic and central antiemetic properties. Prolongation of the QTc interval with chronic use of oral domperidone in standard doses has been reported in the literature. Our goal was to investigate cardiac toxicity in patients

Delayed cardiotoxicity following quinine overdose: a case report.

Quinine poisoning typically results in a constellation of non-life threatening symptoms which include tinnitus, deafness, nausea, vomiting, vision changes, headache, and hypotension. Cardiac conduction defects, dysrhythmias, and cardiovascular collapse have all been reported after overdose and

Mitoxantrone in advanced breast cancer--a phase II study with special attention to cardiotoxicity.

Only registered users can translate articles

Thirty-four patients with advanced breast cancer, who had not received previous chemotherapy for metastatic disease, were treated with mitoxantrone 14 mg/m2 i.v. every 21 days. Eleven of 33 evaluable patients (33%) achieved a partial response; there were no complete responders. Before commencing

Protective effect of the bispiperazinedione ICRF-187 against doxorubicin-induced cardiac toxicity in women with advanced breast cancer.

Only registered users can translate articles

Studies in animals suggest that the bispiperazinedione ICRF-187 can prevent the development of dose-related doxorubicin-induced cardiac toxicity. In a randomized trial in 92 women with advanced breast cancer, we compared treatment with fluorouracil, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide (FDC), given

Safety and Efficacy of s-MOX Regimen in Patients with Colorectal Cancer Who Developed Cardiotoxicity Following Fluoropyrimidine Administration: A Case Series

Only registered users can translate articles

Background: Fluoropyrimidines compose the backbone of regimens to treat many common solid tumors, including gastrointestinal (GI), breast and head/neck. As we continue to use these agents routinely, recognition of rare but real

Cardiotoxicity of 5-fluorouracil and capecitabine in a pancreatic cancer patient with a novel mutation in the dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase gene.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) is an antimetabolite that acts during the S phase of the cell cycle. Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) is the initial and rate-limiting enzyme in the pathway that catabolises the pyrimidines. 5-fluorouracil and its oral prodrug capecitabine are used in the

Reduced cardiotoxicity and comparable efficacy in a phase III trial of pegylated liposomal doxorubicin HCl (CAELYX/Doxil) versus conventional doxorubicin for first-line treatment of metastatic breast cancer.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND This study was designed to demonstrate that efficacy [progression-free survival (PFS)] of CAELYX [pegylated liposomal doxorubicin HCl (PLD)] is non-inferior to doxorubicin with significantly less cardiotoxicity in first-line treatment of women with metastatic breast cancer
