amifostine anhydrous and Colorectal Cancer

amifostine anhydrous has been researched along with Colorectal Cancer in 13 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.

" Professionals discussed a novel treatment (Irinotecan) for advanced colorectal cancers; a unique anticancer agent (Docetaxel) effective in hard-to-treat head and neck cancer; a highly active neoadjuvant chemotherapy regimen for operable breast cancer; and a cytoprotective agent (Amifostine) capable of protecting normal tissue from radiation and chemotherapeutic toxicity."3.69Highlights of the Eighth European Cancer Conference. ( Prescott, LM, 1995)
" 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. ( Fuhlroth, J; Martens-Lobenhoffer, J; Ridwelski, K, 2000)
" As the dosage of 90Y-CO17-1A increased, the rate of tumor growth decreased, but all experimental animals in this group died between 14 and 21 days."1.28Radioimmunotherapy of human colorectal carcinoma xenografts using 90Y-labeled monoclonal antibody CO17-1A prepared by two bifunctional chelate techniques.
