amifostine anhydrous and Cardiac Diseases

amifostine anhydrous has been researched along with Cardiac Diseases in 7 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.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Instead, patients in the control arms of some of the trials have been exposed to more prolonged use or increased dosage of toxic chemotherapy that placed them at greater risk of the toxicity the protective agent was designed to prevent (eg, cardiotoxicity in trials of dexrazoxane, myelosuppression or thrombocytopenia in trials of growth factors)."4.80Design and interpretation of clinical trials that evaluate agents that may offer protection from the toxic effects of cancer chemotherapy. ( Phillips, KA; Tannock, IF, 1998)
"Compared to dexrazoxane, amifostine provided a comparable degree of protection against the nephrotoxicity of doxorubicin, but was less cardioprotective and did not prevent the mortality and loss of body weight produced by doxorubicin."3.70Comparison of the protective effects of amifostine and dexrazoxane against the toxicity of doxorubicin in spontaneously hypertensive rats. ( Chadwick, DP; Ferrans, VJ; Herman, EH; Zhang, J, 2000)
" Evaluation of these toxic effects, as well as of the cardioprotective efficacy of the administered drugs, was performed using (1) ECG-records before and during the infusion of the proarrhythmogenic compound, aconitine (8 microg/kg/min i."1.30The efficacy of selenium, WR-2721, and their combination in the prevention of adriamycin-induced cardiotoxicity in rats.
