Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" PCPA (2 g 8 hourly for 2 or 3 days prior to cisplatin) reduced the spontaneous urinary excretion of 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA), inhibited the increase in urinary 5-HIAA induced by cisplatin and markedly attenuated the acute period of nausea and vomiting associated with the cytotoxic drug."5.08Treatment with para-chlorophenylalanine antagonises the emetic response and the serotonin-releasing actions of cisplatin in cancer patients.
