procarbazine and Virus Diseases

procarbazine has been researched along with Virus Diseases in 5 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.

Virus Diseases: A general term for diseases caused by viruses.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" There were three fatal toxic events, two due to viral infection and one to a second malignant tumor (NHL)."1.28Hodgkin's disease in children: treatment with MOPP and low-dose, extended field irradiation without laparotomy. Late results and toxicity. ( Berry, M; Blanchette, V; Chan, H; Doherty, M; Doyle, J; Freedman, M; Greenberg, M; Jenkin, D; Panzarella, T; Saunders, F, 1990)
"Azathioprine was best tolerated, but gave only medium results whereas procarbazine, as a very potent drug, had the highest rate of side effects (especially depression of bone marrow, infections, gastrointestinal manifestations etc."1.25[Side effects in immunosuppressive therapy]. ( Thumb, N, 1975)
