Comparative acute intravenous toxicity studies of vinblastine sulfate (VLB), vincristine sulfate (VCR), and vindesine in mice and rats indicated that vindesine was more toxic than VLB and less toxic than VCR. Rats were able to tolerate larger repeated doses of vindesine than dogs. Rats given
A 25-year-old woman being treated for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma was accidentally given vindesine intrathecally. The error was recognized immediately and a spinal cord washing was performed through syringing with isotonic saline. However, the patient died 6 weeks later with increasing paralysis, which
The authors treated 51 patients with solid tumours with vindesine 4 mg/m2, generally every third week, in combination chemotherapy protocols scheduled according to diurnal variability of kinetics. No dose-related sensory disorders were observed: On the contrary, motor toxicity appeared cumulative:
Although combination chemotherapy is applied on a large scale in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), we still lack evidence indicating in which subsets of patients survival or quality of life might be improved. We studied these issues among a sample of 28 NSCLC patients with a high
OBJECTIVE
A case in which a possible cisplatin interference with lithium pharmacokinetics is evaluated.
RESULTS
A 36-year-old woman with disseminated cervical cancer and multiple metastatic lesions in both kidneys was being treated with five courses of bleomycin, vindesine, mitomycin C, and
A patient with a lymphoid blast crisis of a chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) was treated with vindesine, vincristine and prednisone. Blasts disappeared from the peripheral blood but persisted at a level of 60% in the bone marrow. After 5 weeks of continuous therapy, the patient became
OBJECTIVE
To study the clinical response to preoperative chemotherapy in relation to pathologic changes in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
METHODS
Forty-six stage I-IIIa NSCLC patients were given 1-2 courses of preoperative chemotherapy with mitomycin C (MMC) 6 mg.M-2 on day 1, vindesine (VDS)
In order to examine and compare the potential toxicity in the olfactory epithelium, the antitumor drug vincristine sulfate (VCR), vinblastine sulfate(VBL), vindesine sulfate (VDS), paclitaxel (PTX), mitomycin C (MMC), 5-fluorouracil, (5-FU) or cisplatin (CDDP) was intravenously injected
