The effectiveness of intensive post-remission chemotherapy regimens for adult patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is limited by both a high rate of disease recurrence and a substantial incidence of treatment toxicity. To evaluate a potentially more effective and less toxic approach, we
This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of a new regimen consisting of Topotecan, Ifosfamide, Etoposide, and L-asparaginase (TIEL) in treating aggressive T-cell lymphoma. Twenty-four patients were included in the research, eighteen males and six females. Half of the patients were in stages III
Acute pancreatitis and diabetic ketoacidosis are unusual adverse events following chemotherapy based on L-asparaginase and prednisone as support treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia. We present the case of a 16-year-old Hispanic male patient, in remission induction therapy for acute
The purpose of this study was to evaluate response rates, 1st remission duration (FRD), and toxicity in dogs with previously untreated lymphoma receiving an identical CHOP-based combination chemotherapy protocol with or without L-asparaginase (LASP). One hundred fifteen dogs with lymphoma were
Vincristine (VCR) and L-asparaginase (L-ASP) are commonly used to treat canine lymphoma. As single agents, these drugs are not myelosuppressive. However, in combination, VCR and L-ASP cause severe neutropenia in some dogs. It has been recommended that L-ASP be administered 12-24 hours after VCR to
Clinical effects of sequential administration of high-dose cytosine arabinoside with L-asparaginase were studied in 5 cases of refractory acute leukemia and 2 cases of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. A total 12 courses were carried out on these 7 patients and complete remission was obtained in 2 courses and
A 41-year-old male was diagnosed as acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) in November, 1982 and partial remission was obtained by a combination chemotherapy of LVP, DVP ABOP and VAMP. In January, 1983, peripheral blood showed an increasing number of leukemic cells and he was readmitted to our hospital.
A polyethylene glycol conjugate of L-asparaginase (PEGLA) was administered to 21 patients with refractory non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The dose given was 2,000 mu/m2 intramuscularly every 2 weeks. Eligibility required at least one prior trial of chemotherapy and ambulatory performance status. At entry,
L-asparaginase is widely used in the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia in children and adults. Use of L-aspa E. Coli as well as Erwinase is not possible in all cases because of the side effects, mainly allergic reactions and disfunction of pancreas. Recently, the new form of the enzyme
Phase II clinical trials of L-asparaginase of leunase manufactured by "Kyowa" (Japan) was performed in cooperation by 5 institutions of the USSR on 49 patients with various forms of hemoblastosis, including 15 patients aged 1 to 15 and 34 patients aged 16 to 75. The drug was used in a daily dose of
The role of L-asparaginase (L-ASP) in limiting signs of methotrexate (MTX) toxicosis was studied. Eight dogs were randomly allotted to 2 groups of 4 dogs. All dogs were given 400 IU of L-ASP/kg of body weight IM, on day 1. On day 10, group-1 dogs were given 3 mg of MTX/kg, IV, and group-2 dogs were
The purpose of the study was to identify the association between chemotherapy-induced nausea/vomiting and changes to the electrogastrogram (EGG) of two children suffering from leukemia. After receiving written consent/assent, the children, both with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), were
A 10-year-old golden retriever bitch was treated for diarrhea and vomiting that lasted about 1 month without a specific diagnosis until a hepatic biopsy provided a histopathologic diagnosis of lymphoma. The dog was referred to the Swedish University of Agricultural Science and treated with one dose
42 dogs with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) were randomized for treatment with either PEG-L-asparaginase 10 IU/kg intramuscularly (n = 22) or L-asparaginase 400 IU/kg intraperitoneally (n = 20). Another 20 dogs were treated with either PEG-L-asparaginase 30 IU/kg (n = 10) or L-asparaginase 400 IU/kg
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the in vitro activity of polyethylene glycol-conjugated L-asparaginase (PEG-Lasparaginase) against fresh human tumor specimens, using the human tumor clonogenic assay (HTCA), and to perform a phase I dose-escalation clinical trial of PEG-L-asparaginase. The goal of the clinical
