amifostine anhydrous and Carcinoma

amifostine anhydrous has been researched along with Carcinoma in 11 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.

Carcinoma: A malignant neoplasm made up of epithelial cells tending to infiltrate the surrounding tissues and give rise to metastases. It is a histological type of neoplasm and not a synonym for cancer.

Trial Outcomes

Number of Patients With Acute Grade 3/4 Toxicity (Excluding Grade 3 Leukopenia)

The second part of this study (second arm) was designed to detect a 40% relative reduction (absolute from 77% to 46%) in the acute grade 3/4 toxicity (excluding grade 3 leukopenia) rate, with the addition of amifostine. A one-sided alpha of 0.05 and 80% power required 16 evaluable patients to detect the hypothesized difference. If ≤ 8 had the toxicity, it would be concluded that adding amifostine decreased this toxicity rate by at least 40%. (NCT00012012)
Timeframe: From start of treatment to 90 days

Rate of Acute Grade 3/4 Toxicity (Excluding Grade 3 Leukopenia)

To determine the feasibility and tolerance of extended-field external radiotherapy to the pelvis and para-aortic region and intracavitary irradiation combined with weekly cisplatin using the rate of acute grade 3/4 toxicity rate (excluding grade 3 leukopenia). The first part of this study was designed to determine the acute grade 3/4 toxicity rate (excluding grade 3 leukopenia), to have a starting point for the second part (second arm) of the study.
