amifostine anhydrous and Cancer of Liver

amifostine anhydrous has been researched along with Cancer of Liver in 12 studies

Amifostine: A phosphorothioate proposed as a radiation-protective agent. It causes splenic vasodilation and may block autonomic ganglia.
amifostine : An organic thiophosphate that is the S-phospho derivative of 2-[(3-aminopropyl)amino]ethanethiol. A prodrug for the free thiol, WR-1065, which is used as a cytoprotectant in cancer chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

"The primary objective was to assess the efficacy of any medical intervention to prevent hearing loss in children with cancer treated with platinum-based therapy (that is including cisplatin, carboplatin and/or oxaliplatin) when compared to placebo, no additional treatment or a different protective medical intervention."4.90Medical interventions for the prevention of platinum-induced hearing loss in children with cancer. ( van As, JW; van Dalen, EC; van den Berg, H, 2014)
"A total of 92 patients with colorectal cancer or gastric cancer were enrolled, and randomly assigned to receive amifostine (500 mg/m2)(amifostine group, 46 patients) or glutamine (1500 mg/m2) (control group, 46 patients) just before oxaliplatin infusion."2.73[Prophylactic effect of amifostine on oxaliplatin-related neurotoxicity in patients with digestive tract tumors]. ( Fan, QX; Lu, P; Wang, LX; Wang, RL; Wang, X; Zong, H, 2008)
"At the moment there is no evidence from individual studies in children with osteosarcoma and hepatoblastoma treated with different platinum analogues and dosage schedules which underscores the use of amifostine as an otoprotective intervention as compared to no additional treatment."2.48Medical interventions for the prevention of platinum-induced hearing loss in children with cancer. ( van As, JW; van Dalen, EC; van den Berg, H, 2012)
" In this study, the pharmacokinetic parameters of 5-FU are monitored in six patients, who received two chemotherapeutic courses of 2,600 mg/m2 BSA 5FU over 24 h, one course with 700 mg/m2 BSA amifostine prior to the 5-FU infusion and the other without."1.31Influence of the administration of amifostine on the pharmacokinetics of 5-fluorouracil in patients with metastatic colorectal carcinoma.
