OBJECTIVE
Previous research has proposed that the hypomethylating agent decitabine can sensitize ovarian cancer cells to chemical agents. In this open-label, phase I/II clinical study, we analyzed the toxicity and efficacy of low dose decitabine combined with taxol and platinum chemotherapy in
CBT-1, a natural product, was studied as an MDR modulator with Taxol (135 mg/m2) in an escalating dose Phase I clinical trial. CBT-1 was administered orally at doses from 300 mg/m2 to 500 mg/m2 daily x 7. The MTD was determined to be 500 mg/m2 with moderate nausea and occasional emesis. Side effects
OBJECTIVE
Standard chemotherapy for advanced gastric cancer remains undefined. Phase II trials show that taxol is effective in treating advanced gastric cancer. This multi-center prospective open randomized controlled study was to compare the efficacy of Taxol plus calcium folinate
Cisplatin (9 mg/kg) or taxol (20 mg/kg) treatment of Wistar rats produced a sharp decrease in inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and gastrin in the pyloric region of the stomach, and an increase in iNOS and somatostatin in the pancreatic islets. Nitric oxide (NO) functions as a relaxation factor
BACKGROUND
To evaluate the results of taxol and concomitant radiotherapy and those of sequential combined modality chemotherapy with taxol plus cisplatin ( DDP) and radiotherapy in treatment of locally advanced non small cell lung cancer ( NSCLC) .
METHODS
From January 1998 through August 1999, 36
The Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) is conducting a phase II trial of Taxol in patients with histologically confirmed, advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck. Patients entered in the study to date either had recurrent disease or were newly diagnosed with incurable
Taxol, a novel antimicrotubule agent that enhances tubulin polymerization and microtubule stability, was administered to adults with refractory leukemias as a 24-h i.v. infusion in a Phase I study. The primary objectives were to determine the maximum tolerated dose of taxol administered on this
Taxol is a unique plant product that promotes in vitro assembly of microtubules. In a phase I trial, adults with advanced solid tumors were given taxol (formulated with cremophor EL and dehydrated alcohol) as a 3-hour iv infusion every 21 days. The total dose administered ranged from 15 to 230 mg/m2
We present preliminary results of a study undertaken in previously untreated patients with non-small cell lung cancer to determine the maximum tolerated dose of paclitaxel (Taxol; Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, Princeton, NJ) when administered as a 3-hour intravenous infusion in combination with
BACKGROUND
Paclitaxel (Taxol) is an anticancer agent used for the treatment of breast and ovarian cancer. The major side effects are bone marrow suppression, alopecia, polyneuropathy and cardiac toxicity like bradycardia, myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure and cardiac
Taxol (paclitaxel, Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, Princeton, NJ), a drug extracted from the stem bark of the western yew, shows great promise as an antineoplastic agent for ovarian, breast, nonsmall cell lung, and head and neck cancers; melanoma; and leukemia. Although Taxol first was isolated in
Taxol is a unique plant-derived antineoplastic agent that appears to exert its cytotoxic effect by interfering with microtubule structure and function. In this phase I trial, in which the drug was given as a brief iv infusion every 3 weeks, the dose-limiting toxicity was leukopenia, with
Taxol is a novel taxane derivative obtained from the bark of the Pacific yew, Taxus brevifolia, which has demonstrated substantial antitumor activity in early clinical trials. Intensive research efforts were necessary to overcome both supply problems and hypersensitivity reactions to the drug and
Taxol is a plant product derived from the western yew, Taxus brevifolia. We have conducted a phase I clinical study of Taxol used intravenously daily for 5 days at 3-week intervals. The starting dose was 5 mg/m2 daily, and the highest dose used was 40 mg/m2 daily for 5 days. The daily dosage of
The safety profile of Taxol administered intravenously as a single agent has been established based on the experience of 655 patients. Of these patients, 253 were treated in nine phase I studies, and 402 were treated in eight disease-oriented phase II studies. Myelosuppression, specifically
