amifostine anhydrous and Hypotension

amifostine anhydrous has been researched along with Hypotension in 17 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.

Hypotension: Abnormally low BLOOD PRESSURE that can result in inadequate blood flow to the brain and other vital organs. Common symptom is DIZZINESS but greater negative impacts on the body occur when there is prolonged depravation of oxygen and nutrients.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" The lack of improved duration of response or impact on survival may be the result of the limited improvement of efficacy with the higher dosage of cisplatin in conjunction with WR-2721, or the limited number of patients accrued to this study."2.71Phase II randomized trial of cisplatin and WR-2721 versus cisplatin alone for metastatic melanoma: an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Study (E1686). ( Borden, E; Ewell, M; Glick, J; Glover, D; Ibrahim, J; Karp, D; Kirkwood, J; Stewart, J, 2003)
" This is the first report focusing on amifostine related adverse effects leading to discontinuation of amifostine treatment."2.71Serious adverse effects of amifostine during radiotherapy in head and neck cancer patients. ( Alberti, W; Bajrovic, A; Fehlauer, F; Mahlmann, B; Rades, D; Richter, E, 2004)
"Hypotension was the most important adverse event of AMI infusion."2.70A pilot study on feasibility and efficacy of amifostine preceding high-dose melphalan with autologous stem cell support in myeloma patients. ( Jantunen, E; Kuittinen, T; Nousiainen, T, 2002)
" We conclude that WR-2721 is a potentially toxic compound that produces no amelioration of cyclophosphamide toxicity in the doses used."2.65Clinical trial of the effect of S-2-(3-aminopropylamino)-ethylphosphorothioic acid (WR-2721) (NSC 296961) on the toxicity of cyclophosphamide. ( Ayoob, MJ; Dritschilo, A; Smith, FP; Woolley, PV, 1983)
" The dosing and administration guidelines are reviewed."2.39Amifostine (Ethyol): dosing, administration and patient management guidelines. ( Bukowski, RM, 1996)
"Transient hypotension was the most common side effect occurring in association with amifostine."1.31Tolerability of the cytoprotective agent amifostine in elderly patients receiving chemotherapy: a comparative study. ( Genvresse, I; Harder, H; Lange, C; Possinger, K; Schanz, J; Schweigert, M; Späth-Schwalbe, E, 2001)
"Emesis was significantly influenced by infusion time; the long schedule caused a 57% incidence whereas the short schedule caused only a 28% incidence."1.27Final report of the phase I trial of single-dose WR-2721 [S-2-(3-aminopropylamino)ethylphosphorothioic acid]. ( Glick, J; Glover, DJ; Hurwitz, S; Kligerman, MM; Norfleet, AL; Turrisi, AT; Weiler, C; Yuhas, JM, 1986)
