To develop a platform for tumor chemotherapy, poly(acrylic acid-co-methyl methacrylate) microparticles have been synthesized. Carboxylate containing monomers were included to complex therapeutic agents, specifically cisplatin. Microparticles were prepared by free radical emulsion polymerization in aqueous media. Particle diameter, zeta-potential, in vitro cytotoxicity, and in vivo acute toxicit...
Cisplatin is a chemotherapeutic drug used to treat a variety of cancers. Both intrinsic and acquired resistance to cisplatin, as well as toxicity, limit its effectiveness. Molecular mechanisms that underlie cisplatin resistance are poorly understood. Here we demonstrate that deletion of the yeast CTR1 gene, which encodes a high-affinity copper transporter, results in increased cisplatin resista...
The toxicity and pharmacokinetics of c/s-diamminedichloroplatinum (cisplatin) (90 mg/sq m) administered as a single 4hr peritoneal dialysis, with or without concurrent i.v. infusion of sodium thiosulfate, 0.43 or 2.13 g/sq m/hr for 12 hr, were studied on 20 courses of treatment. When given without thio sulfate, the toxicity of cisplatin was systemic rather than local, and the peritoneal cavity/...
UNLABELLED background & objectives: The efficacy and toxicity of a given chemotherapy regimen varies widely among patients due to the inherited variability of genes that are involved in drug metabolism. There are several crucial enzymes identified involving metabolism of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and cisplatin, which are polymorphic. We studied head and neck cancer patients (n=23) on 5-FU and cispl...
Polymer micelles with cross-linked ionic cores are shown here to improve the therapeutic performance of the platinum-containing anticancer compound cisplatin. Biodistribution, antitumor efficacy, and toxicity of cisplatin-loaded core cross-linked micelles of poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(methacrylic acid) were evaluated in a mouse ovarian cancer xenograft model. Cisplatin-loaded micelles demonst...
BACKGROUND Cisplatin is a potent anticancer drug, but its clinical application has been limited due to its undesirable physicochemical characteristics and severe side effects. Better drug formulations for cisplatin are highly desired. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Herein, we have developed a nanoparticle formulation for cisplatin with high encapsulation efficiency and reduced toxicity by usi...
PURPOSE To test the hypothesis that daily intravenous pre-hydration decreases renal toxicity and improves chemotherapy adherence in patients receiving daily cisplatin to concurrent radiotherapy for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with locally advanced NSCLC were treated between 2008 and August 2012 with daily 6 mg/m(2) cisplatin as a bolus in...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Cisplatin is the most common chemotherapeutic agent for loco-regionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC); however, toxicity is a limiting factor for some patients. We retrospectively compared the efficacy and toxicity of weekly docetaxel-based and cisplatin-based concurrent chemoradiotherapy in loco-regionally advanced NPC. METHODS AND MATERIALS Eighty-four patie...
Background and Objective: Cisplatin is one of the most important chemotherapy agents but its clinical use has been restricted due to nephrotoxicity. Nigella sativa (N.sativa) is an annual plant with many pharmacologic properties that has been used as a natural remedy for a number of illnesses. In the present study preventive and preventive-treatment effects of N.sativa extract was evaluated aga...
This study was performed to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of low-dose paclitaxel/cisplatin chemotherapy in patients with metastatic or recurrent gastric cancer that had failed 5-fluorouracil/platinum-based chemotherapy. Thirty-two patients with documented progression on or within 6 months after discontinuing 5-fluorouracil/platinum-based chemotherapy were enrolled. As a second-line treatme...
