carmustine and Thyroid Neoplasms

carmustine has been researched along with Thyroid Neoplasms in 4 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.

Thyroid Neoplasms: Tumors or cancer of the THYROID GLAND.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Twenty-two advanced consecutive thyroid cancer patients with varying histologies were treated with the so called BAP regime which consisted of bleomycin (B) 30 mg a day for three days, adriamycin (A) 60 mg/m2 iv in day 5, and cisplatinum (P) 60 to mg/m2 iv in day 5."1.28Combined chemotherapy with bleomycin, adriamycin, and platinum in advanced thyroid cancer.
