thiotepa and Intradural-Extramedullary Spinal Cord Neoplasms

thiotepa has been researched along with Intradural-Extramedullary Spinal Cord Neoplasms in 3 studies

Thiotepa: A very toxic alkylating antineoplastic agent also used as an insect sterilant. It causes skin, gastrointestinal, CNS, and bone marrow damage. According to the Fourth Annual Report on Carcinogens (NTP 85-002, 1985), thiotepa may reasonably be anticipated to be a carcinogen (Merck Index, 11th ed).

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Between April 1986 and March 1989, ten patients under 21 years of age with histologically confirmed malignant astrocytoma, received marrow-ablative chemotherapy with either thiotepa and Etoposide (five patients) or thiotepa, Etoposide and BCNU (five patients), followed by bone marrow 'rescue'."5.06High-dose multi-agent chemotherapy followed by bone marrow 'rescue' for malignant astrocytomas of childhood and adolescence.

"Twelve had Burkitt's leukemia/lymphoma."2.39Excessive spinal cord toxicity from intensive central nervous system-directed therapies. ( Frierdich, S; Lee, Y; Moertel, CL; Morse, M; Nieder, M; Priest, JR; Toogood, I; Watterson, J, 1994)
