Semustine: 4-Methyl derivative of LOMUSTINE; (CCNU). An antineoplastic agent which functions as an alkylating agent.
semustine : An organochlorine compound that is urea in which the two hydrogens on one of the amino groups are replaced by nitroso and 2-chloroethyl groups and one hydrogen from the other amino group is replaced by a 4-methylcyclohexyl group.

Myeloproliferative Disorders: Conditions which cause proliferation of hemopoietically active tissue or of tissue which has embryonic hemopoietic potential. They all involve dysregulation of multipotent MYELOID PROGENITOR CELLS, most often caused by a mutation in the JAK2 PROTEIN TYROSINE KINASE.

"Two hundred forty-one patients with unresectable gastric adenocarcinoma were entered, between December 1978 and March 1981, into a prospectively randomized comparison of three chemotherapy regimens to identify therapeutic activity and determine patient tolerability: (1) 5-fluorouracil plus Adriamycin (FA); (2) FA plus methyl-CCNU (FAMe); and (3) FA plus mitomycin C (FAMi)."5.05Randomized study of combination chemotherapy in unresectable gastric cancer.
