carmustine and Cancer, Second Primary

carmustine has been researched along with Cancer, Second Primary in 18 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
"The Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performed a Phase III comparison of melphalan and prednisone (MP) with vincristine, carmustine (BCNU), melphalan, cyclophosphamide, and prednisone (VBMCP) in an attempt to determine which of these regimens should be the standard treatment for multiple myeloma."9.08Comparison of melphalan and prednisone with vincristine, carmustine, melphalan, cyclophosphamide, and prednisone in the treatment of multiple myeloma: results of Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Study E2479. ( Abramson, N; Glick, JH; Harrington, DP; Knospe, W; Kyle, RA; Oken, MM, 1997)

( Abramson, N; Glick, JH; Harrington, DP; Knospe, W; Kyle, RA; Oken, MM, 1997)
"Six patients, four with Hodgkin's disease and two with non-Hodgkin lymphomas, developed leukemic complications, myelodysplasia (MDS) in four cases and overt acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in two."2.68High risk of therapy-related leukemia after BEAM chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation for previously treated lymphomas is mainly related to primary chemotherapy and not to the BEAM-transplantation procedure. ( Geisler, C; Myhre, J; Pedersen, M; Pedersen-Bjergaard, J, 1997)
" 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)
"Thoracic and abdominal irradiation for Hodgkin's disease was performed concomitantly with chemotherapy for the non-Hodgkin's lymphoma."2.38Cerebral non-Hodgkin's lymphoma discovered when treating Hodgkin's disease. ( Bergeron, C; Chatel, M; Darcel, F; Edan, C; Faivre, J; Jouan, H; Le Moine, P; Le Prise-Fleury, E; Patte, C; Tass, P, 1993)
"The incidence of and risk factors for second cancer development in these patients have not been well studied."1.35Incidence and risk factors for second cancers after autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation for aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma. ( Crump, M; Keating, A; Kuruvilla, J; Pintilie, M; Seshadri, T; Tsang, R; Zadeh, S, 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)
"Despite the fact that follicular lymphomas are both chemo- and radiosensitive, the disease is generally non-curable."1.31Long-term follow-up of autologous stem-cell transplantation for follicular and transformed follicular lymphoma. ( Berglund, A; Carlson, K; Enblad, G; Glimelius, B; Hagberg, H, 2000)
"Three hundred patients with Hodgkin's disease (HD) and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) were treated with cyclophosphamide, carmustine and etoposide and autologous stem cell support from 1986 through 1994."1.31Incidence of post transplant myelodysplasia/acute leukemia in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma patients compared with Hodgkin's disease patients undergoing autologous transplantation following cyclophosphamide, carmustine, and etoposide (CBV). ( Antin, J; Ault, K; Elias, A; Ibrahim, J; Khurshid, A; Mauch, P; Wheeler, C, 2001)
"Hodgkin's disease is curable in the majority of patients, although a proportion of patients are resistant to or relapse after initial therapy."1.30High-dose BEAM chemotherapy with autologous haemopoietic stem cell transplantation for Hodgkin's disease is unlikely to be associated with a major increased risk of secondary MDS/AML.
