procarbazine and Agranulocytosis

procarbazine has been researched along with Agranulocytosis in 12 studies

Procarbazine: An antineoplastic agent used primarily in combination with mechlorethamine, vincristine, and prednisone (the MOPP protocol) in the treatment of Hodgkin's disease.
procarbazine : A benzamide obtained by formal condensation of the carboxy group of 4-[(2-methylhydrazino)methyl]benzoic acid with the amino group of isopropylamine. An antineoplastic chemotherapy drug used for treatment of Hodgkin's lymphoma. Metabolism yields azo-procarbazine and hydrogen peroxide, which results in the breaking of DNA strands.

Agranulocytosis: A decrease in the number of GRANULOCYTES; (BASOPHILS; EOSINOPHILS; and NEUTROPHILS).

"Forty-four patients with progressive symptomatic multiple myeloma were treated with a protocol combining cyclophosphamide (10 mg/kg weekly), procarbazine (2 mg/kg daily), prednisolone (20 mg daily), and either BCNU (1 mg/kg weekly) (BCPP protocol) or MCNU (0."7.67[Combination chemotherapy of multiple myeloma--BCNU.cyclophosphamide.procarbazine.prednisolone and MCNU.cyclophosphamide.procarbazine.prednisolone therapy].

"We evaluated the efficacy and adverse effects of biweekly COP-BLAM (cyclophosphamide, vincristine, prednisone, bleomycin, doxorubicin and procarbazine) therapy combined with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) for treating non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL)."2.68Biweekly COP-BLAM (cyclophosphamide, vincristine, prednisone, bleomycin, doxorubicin and procarbazine) regimen combined with granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) for intermediate-grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

"Eighteen patients with advanced Hodgkin's disease, refractory to combination chemotherapy with nitrogen mustard, vincristine, prednisone, and procarbazine (MOPP), were treated with vinblastine, doxorubicin (Adriamycin), bleomycin, CCNU, and dacarbazine (DTIC) (VABCD)."2.65Treatment of MOPP-refractory Hodgkin's disease with vinblastine, doxorubicin, bleomycin, CCNU, and dacarbazine.
