carmustine and Fibrosarcoma

carmustine has been researched along with Fibrosarcoma in 17 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.

Fibrosarcoma: A sarcoma derived from deep fibrous tissue, characterized by bundles of immature proliferating fibroblasts with variable collagen formation, which tends to invade locally and metastasize by the bloodstream. (Stedman, 25th ed)

") was administered just prior to an alkylating agent, the combination treatment produced significantly more tumor cell killing across the dosage range of each alkylating agent tested compared with the alkylating agent alone."5.28Modulation of alkylating agents by etanidazole and Fluosol-DA/carbogen in the FSaIIC fibrosarcoma and EMT6 mammary carcinoma. ( Bubley, G; Coleman, CN; Eder, JP; Frei, E; Herman, TS; Holden, SA; Tanaka, J; Teicher, BA, 1991)
"To examine the ability of SR-4233, a new cytotoxic agent, to overcome the resistance of hypoxic tumor cells to antitumor alkylating agents, we tested the cytotoxic effect of SR-4233 alone and in combination with varying doses of cisplatin (CDDP), cyclophosphamide (CPM), carmustine (BCNU), or melphalan (L-PAM) on tumor cells and bone marrow cells isolated from C3H/FeJ mice bearing the FSaIIC fibrosarcoma."3.68Enhancement of alkylating agent activity by SR-4233 in the FSaIIC murine fibrosarcoma. ( Ara, G; Coleman, CN; Herman, TS; Holden, SA; Teicher, BA, 1992)
" Using a new concentrated perfluorochemical emulsion, a wide range of perfluorochemical doses has been examined in combination with melphalan, cyclophosphamide and 1,3-bis(2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea (BCNU) in the FSaIIC fibrosarcoma."3.68A new concentrated perfluorochemical emulsion and carbogen breathing as an adjuvant to treatment with antitumor alkylating agents.

"Etoposide alone was essentially additive with the alkylating drugs for both tumor-cell and bone-marrow killing, except for BCNU, where a substantial increase in tumor-cell killing occurred (0."1.28Etoposide with lonidamine or pentoxifylline as modulators of alkylating agent activity in vivo.
