paclitaxel/癲癇性発作

Paclitaxel is a chemotherapeutic agent that is effective against ovarian, breast, lung, and other cancers. Although peripheral neurotoxicity is among the most common side effects of paclitaxel treatment, central neurotoxicity is rarely reported. When centrally mediated side effects are observed,

Cisplatin and paclitaxel both can cause peripheral neurotoxicity as an adverse effect; however, central nervous system neurotoxicity in the form of seizures is rare. We report a case of a 36-year-old female patient of metastatic carcinoma cervix, who developed seizure shortly after cisplatin

Paclitaxel, a microtubule stabilizer, is an effective agent for treating cancer of the breast, ovary, head and neck, and lung. Because paclitaxel is insoluble in water, it is formulated with the micelle-forming Cremophor EL. Neurologic toxicity is well described with both the drug and this carrier,

OBJECTIVE To determine the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) of paclitaxel administered as a 3-hour infusion in patients with recurrent malignant glioma. METHODS Patients were stratified by starting dose of paclitaxel and concurrent anticonvulsant (AC) use and were treated in cohorts of three patients.

OBJECTIVE A phase I study was performed to describe the principal toxicities and identify the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) of Taxol (paclitaxel; Bristol-Myers Squibb Co, Wallingford, CT) in children with therapy-resistant solid tumors. Additionally, the pharmacokinetic disposition of Taxol in

BACKGROUND Reversible posterior leukoencephalopathy syndrome (RPLS) is a clinicoradiologic syndrome characterized by headache, decreased alertness, seizures, visual abnormalities, and white matter changes indicative of cerebral edema. Although the pathogenesis remains poorly understood, several

Paclitaxel (Taxol) is a novel antineoplastic agent that acts by promoting microtubule polymerization. Although myelosuppression and peripheral neurotoxicity are well known and dose limiting, there have been no reports of CNS toxicity apart from two patients with seizures. This may reflect that

In order to examine the efficacy and safety of nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-P) in combination with bevacizumab (B) and gemcitabine (G) for the first-line treatment of patients with HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer (MBC). In this single-center, open-label phase II trial, patients

Patients with cancer commonly experience seizures. Combined therapy with anticonvulsant drugs (AEDs) and chemotherapeutic drugs or tyrosine kinase inhibitors carries inherent risks on drug-drug interactions (DDIs). In this review, pharmacokinetic studies of AEDs with chemotherapeutic drugs, tyrosine

Background: Breast cancer is a global health problem - it is the most common malignancy among women. Triple negative breast cancers (TNBC) account for 10-20% of female breast cancer. Most TNBC cases confer poor prognosis. Brain metastasis

The involvement of microtubule dynamics on bioelectric activity of neurons and neurotransmission represents a fascinating target of research in the context of neural excitability. It has been reported that alteration of microtubule cytoskeleton can lead to profound modifications of neural

Background: The recurrence and drug resistance of temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) has been ceaselessly challenging scientists and epilepsy experts. There has been an accumulation of evidence linking the dysregulation of postsynaptic proteins
