carmustine and Acute Myelogenous Leukemia

carmustine has been researched along with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia in 36 studies

Carmustine: A cell-cycle phase nonspecific alkylating antineoplastic agent. It is used in the treatment of brain tumors and various other malignant neoplasms. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p462) This substance may reasonably be anticipated to be a carcinogen according to the Fourth Annual Report on Carcinogens (NTP 85-002, 1985). (From Merck Index, 11th ed)
carmustine : A member of the class of N-nitrosoureas that is 1,3-bis(2-chloroethyl)urea in which one of the nitrogens is substituted by a nitroso group.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Between March 1993 and June 2002, we treated 33 relapsed acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) patients with busulfan-based preparative regimens and selective TCD."5.11CD8+ T-cell-depleted, matched unrelated donor, allogeneic bone marrow transplantation for advanced AML using busulfan-based preparative regimens. ( Andresen, S; Ball, E; Bolwell, B; Cook, D; Kalaycio, M; Kuczkowski, E; Pohlman, B; Rybicki, L; Sobecks, R, 2005)
" Graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis consisted of cyclosporine A and alemtuzumab (10-20 mg)."3.78Radiation-free allogeneic conditioning with fludarabine, carmustine, and thiotepa for acute lymphoblastic leukemia and other hematologic malignancies necessitating enhanced central nervous system activity. ( Bertz, H; Christopoulos, P; Finke, J; Ihorst, G; Marks, R; Wäsch, R, 2012)
"Of 209 Hodgkin's disease patients treated at least 6 months with a five-drug combination of induction chemotherapy and having a complete remission, four patients developed acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) as a second malignant neoplasm."2.65Acute myelogenous leukemia as a second malignant neoplasm following the successful treatment of advanced Hodgkin's disease. ( Bartolucci, AA; Durant, JR; Gams, RA; Liu, C, 1983)
"Etoposide has also been tested in a wide range of combination regimens, but for many of these combinations, relatively few patients are included, and some combinations have only been tested in patients who have undergone autologous transplants."2.48High-dose etoposide in allogeneic stem cell transplantation. ( Ahmed, AB; Bruserud, O; Hatfield, KJ; Kittang, AO; Reikvam, H; Sjo, M; Tvedt, TH, 2012)
" Alternative dosing regimens, such as 1-week on/1-week off, or 3-week on/1-week off, that deliver more prolonged exposure have been observed to result in higher cumulative doses than the standard 5-day regimen and may deplete tumor-derived O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) in tumor cells, thus sensitizing tumor cells to the effects of TMZ."2.45[Treatment of glioma with temozolomide]. ( Nishikawa, R, 2009)
"Cytogenetic analysis showed complex chromosomal abnormalities including 11q23 rearrangement, which is frequently found in topoisomerase II inhibitor-related hematologic malignancies."1.31A case of treatment-related myelodysplastic syndrome and acute myelogenous leukemia following high-dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell transplantation for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. ( Bahng, HS; Jang, GD; Jeong, YH; Ji, HS; Kim, EK; Kim, SH; Kim, SW; Kim, WK; Lee, JS; Park, CJ; Park, IG; Suh, CW; Suh, EJ, 2002)
"Eleven patients with acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML) beyond the first complete remission or chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) not in first chronic phase received an association of 13."1.29Total body irradiation and high-dose cyclophosphamide, BCNU and VP-16 (CBV) as a new preparatory regimen for allogeneic bone marrow transplantation in patients with advanced hematologic malignancies. ( Bourdin, S; Harousseau, JL; Le Tortorec, S; Mahe, B; Mahe, JM; Mechinaud-Lacroix, F; Milpied, N; Moreau, P; Rapp, MJ; Wu, DP, 1994)
"Twenty-one acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) patients were submitted in second remission (II CR) to BAVC conditioning regimen followed by unpurged ABMT."1.28BAVC regimen and autologous bone marrow transplantation in patients with acute myelogenous leukemia in second remission. ( De Fabritiis, P; Mandelli, F; Meloni, G; Petti, MC, 1990)
"Seven patients with metastatic tumors resistant to therapy with adriamycin, BCNU, plus cyclophosphamide received the same chemotherapy combined with amphotericin B."1.26Amphotericin B induction of sensitivity to adriamycin, 1,3-bis (2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea (BCNU) plus cyclophosphamide in human neoplasia. ( Klahr, C; Presant, CA; Santala, R, 1977)
"Chronic granulocytic leukemia (CGL) terminates in a disease similar to acute leukemia."1.26Blast crisis of chronic granulocytic leukemia. Morphologic variants and therapeutic implications. ( Canellos, GP; Gralnick, HR; Rosenthal, S; Whang-Peng, J, 1977)
