chlorambucil and Vasculitis

chlorambucil has been researched along with Vasculitis in 8 studies

Chlorambucil: A nitrogen mustard alkylating agent used as antineoplastic for chronic lymphocytic leukemia, Hodgkin's disease, and others. Although it is less toxic than most other nitrogen mustards, it has been listed as a known carcinogen in the Fourth Annual Report on Carcinogens (NTP 85-002, 1985). (Merck Index, 11th ed)
chlorambucil : A monocarboxylic acid that is butanoic acid substituted at position 4 by a 4-[bis(2-chloroethyl)amino]phenyl group. A chemotherapy drug that can be used in combination with the antibody obinutuzumab for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Vasculitis: Inflammation of any one of the blood vessels, including the ARTERIES; VEINS; and rest of the vasculature system in the body.

( Colby, TV; DeRemee, RA; Gracey, DR; Unni, KK; Weiland, LH, 1988)

"If the vasculitis is secondary to an underlying disease, such as lymphoma, therapy should be directed at the primary disease."2.37Pulmonary vasculitis. ( Fauci, AS; Leavitt, RY, 1986)
"Urticarial vasculitis is a form of cutaneous leukocytoclastic vasculitis clinically characterized by persistent and often painful urticarial lesions."1.33Plasmapheresis for refractory urticarial vasculitis in a patient with B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
