Background: CHOP is considered to be the gold standard for patients with histologically aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma both in limited and advanced stages. In order to determine the maximum tolerable dose of an intensified CHOP regimen, a dose-escalation study of CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone) in patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) was started.Patients and methods: With an increased fixed dose of doxorubicin at 75 mg/m2 instead of 50 mg/m2 on day 1 and standard doses of vincristine (1.4 mg/m2 on day 1) and prednisone (100 mg day 1 through 5), cyclophosphamide dose was escalated by increments of 250 mg/m2 in consecutive cohorts of at least three patients starting from 1000 mg/m2. Granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) support was added to the regimen starting from the dose-level inducing grade 4 neutropenia lasting more than five days in two patients. Dose limiting toxicity was defined as either the dose inducing grade 4 neutropenia lasting more than seven days despite the use of G-CSF, or grade 3–4 thrombocytopenia lasting more than seven days, or any grade 4 non-hematological toxicity other than alopecia. The dose-level below the one inducing dose-limiting toxicity was defined as maximum tolerable dose. All patients were treated on an outpatient basis. Dose-intensity parameters for single agent doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide as well as for the whole regimen were evaluated.Results: Eighty-seven patients are evaluable over a four-year study period. At 1750 mg/m2 dose-level, G-CSF was added to the regimen according to described criteria. At the cyclophosphamide dose of 3000 mg/m2, dose-limiting hematological toxicity occurred in two patients, with one grade 4 thrombocytopenia and neutropenia and one grade 4 neutropenia lasting more than seven days. Thus, cyclophosphamide dose of 2750 mg/m2 was defined as maximum tolerable dose.Conclusions: CHOP intensification of approximately 1.8 times that of the standard regimen is feasible and safely administered on an outpatient basis with G-CSF support. Further investigation on the role of dose-intensity in the outcome of NHL should focus on the comparison of intensified CHOP regimen and standard CHOP or high-dose chemotherapy. 相似文献

Background:CHOP is accepted as the gold standard for first linechemotherapy of aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). A dose-escalationstudy of CHOP was conducted to determine the maximal tolerated dose (MTD) andtoxicity profile of CHOP at three-week intervals with or without prophylacticrecombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rHuG-CSF) in patientswith aggressive NHL.
Patients and methods:The doses of drugs were escalated from 50mg/m2 to 70 mg/m2 for doxorubicin and from 750mg/m2 to 2250 mg/m2 for cyclophosphamide, withconventional doses of vincristine and oral prednisolone. After the MTD wasdetermined without rHuG-CSF, dose escalation was conducted with prophylacticrHuG-CSF.
Results:Thirty-three patients with NHL were enrolled into thestudy. The MTD without prophylactic rHuG-CSF was 70 mg/m2 ofdoxorubicin and 1250 mg/m2 of cyclophosphamide, with neutropeniaas a dose-limiting toxicity. The MTD with prophylactic rHuG-CSF was 70mg/m2 of doxorubicin and 2250 mg/m2 of cyclophosphamide.The overall response rate was 100% (76% complete response and24% partial response). Progression-free survival and overall survivalat five years were 45% and 66%, respectively.
Conclusions:Significant dose escalation of doxorubicin andcyclophosphamide was feasible with prophylactic rHuG-CSF. The efficacy ofdose-escalated CHOP should be compared with that of standard CHOP. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone) is accepted as the best available standard treatment for first-line chemotherapy in aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). However, the therapeutic efficacy of CHOP remains unsatisfactory, particularly in high-intermediate risk and high risk patients, and a new strategy is warranted in this patient population. The aim of the present study was to explore a suitable therapeutic-intensified regimen for the treatment of aggressive NHL. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Between May 1995 and July 1998, a total of 70 patients with high-intermediate risk or high risk aggressive NHL, according to the International Prognostic Index, were enrolled and randomly assigned to receive either eight cycles of standard CHOP (cyclophosphamide 750 mg/m(2), doxorubicin 50 mg/m(2), vincristine 1.4 mg/m(2) and prednisolone 100 mg for 5 days) every 2 weeks, or six cycles of dose-escalated CHOP (cyclophosphamide 1500 mg/m(2), doxorubicin 70 mg/m(2), vincristine 1.4 mg/m(2) and prednisolone 100 mg for 5 days) every 3 weeks. Lenograstim (glycosylated rHuG-CSF), at a dose of 2 micro g/kg/day s.c., was administered daily from day 3 until day 13 with biweekly CHOP and until day 20 with the dose-escalated CHOP. The primary endpoint was complete response rate. RESULTS: The complete response rate was 60% [21 of 35; 95% confidence interval (CI) 42% to 76%] with biweekly CHOP and 51% (18 of 35; 95% CI 34% to 69%) with dose-escalated CHOP. The major toxicity was grade 4 neutropenia and was more frequent in the dose-escalated CHOP arm (86%) than in the biweekly CHOP arm (50%). Grade 4 thrombocytopenia was also more frequent in the dose-escalated CHOP arm (20%) than the biweekly CHOP arm (3%). Non-hematological toxicities were acceptable in both arms. One treatment-related death (due to cardiac arrhythmia) was observed in a dose-escalated CHOP patient. Progression-free survival at 3 years was 43% (95% CI 27% to 59%) in the biweekly CHOP arm and 31% (95% CI 16% to 47%) in the dose-escalated CHOP arm. Although seven patients were deemed ineligible by central review of the pathological diagnosis, the results for both eligible and all enrolled patients were similar. CONCLUSIONS: Similar complete response rates and progression-free survival rates, but lower toxicity, indicated that biweekly CHOP was superior to dose-escalated CHOP in the treatment of aggressive NHL. Based on these results, the Lymphoma Study Group of the Japan Clinical Oncology Group is conducting a randomized phase III study comparing biweekly CHOP with standard CHOP in newly diagnosed patients with advanced-stage aggressive NHL. 相似文献

BACKGROUND:
Bortezomib has demonstrated efficacy in patients with relapsed B‐cell non‐Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) both alone and in combination with other agents; however, limited data exist regarding its toxicity in combination with common frontline therapies for indolent NHL. A phase 1 study of bortezomib combined with rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, modified vincristine, and prednisone (R‐CHOP) was conducted in patients with untreated follicular lymphoma (FL) and other indolent NHLs.METHODS:
Nineteen patients, including 10 patients with FL, were enrolled. The median patient age was 59 years (range, 29‐71 years). Seven patients had a FL International Prognostic Index score ≥3. R‐CHOP with the vincristine dose capped at 1.5 mg was administered on a 21‐day cycle for 6 to 8 cycles, and 1 of 3 dose levels of bortezomib (1.0 mg/m2 [n = 1], 1.3 mg/m2 [n = 6], or 1.6 mg/m2 [n = 12]) was administered on days 1 and 8 of each cycle using a Bayesian algorithm for dose escalation.RESULTS:
The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of bortezomib with modified R‐CHOP was reached at 1.6 mg/m2. Dose‐limiting toxicity was observed in 5 patients (1 patient at a bortezomib dose of 1.0 mg/m2, 1 patient at a bortezomib dose of 1.3 mg/m2, and 3 patients at a bortezomib dose of 1.6 mg/m2). Neuropathy occurred in 16 patients (84%), including 2 patients (11%) who experienced grade 3 sensory neuropathy. Grade 4 hematologic toxicity occurred in 4 patients. Of 19 evaluable patients, 100% responded, and the complete response rate was 68%. At a median follow‐up of 32 months, the 3‐year progression‐free survival rate was 89.5%.CONCLUSIONS:
Bortezomib combined with modified R‐CHOP produced high response rates without substantial increases in toxicity. A phase 2 study of R‐CHOP and bortezomib given at this established MTD is currently ongoing. Cancer 2012;3538–3548. © 2012 American Cancer Society. 相似文献5.

BACKGROUND: To address the feasibility and outcome of moderate dose intensification with granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) for patients with aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), the Cancer and Leukemia Group B (CALGB) conducted two studies evaluating dose-escalated cyclophosphamide and etoposide in the cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone, etoposide (CHOPE) regimen. METHODS: Eligibility criteria included histologically documented, diffuse small cleaved, diffuse mixed, diffuse large cell, or immunoblastic lymphoma, Stage III--IV or bulky Stage II disease, and an ECOG performance status of 0--1. CALGB 8852, a group-wide study, accrued 227 patients: 120 patients in the pilot study to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) without G-CSF and 107 in the pilot study of dose-escalated CHOPE with G-CSF. CALGB 8854, a limited-institution, Phase I study, enrolled 38 patients and determined the MTD of CHOPE with G-CSF to be used in CALGB 8852. The MTD in both studies was defined as the dose at which 50% of patients had 1) Grade 4 neutropenia or thrombocytopenia lasting 7 days or more, or 2) Grade 3--4 hemorrhage or nonhematologic toxicity (excluding alopecia, nausea, and emesis), or 3) were prevented from receiving 100% of drug on Day 22. RESULTS: The MTD of CHOPE without G-CSF was cyclophosphamide 1000 mg/m(2) on Day 1 and etoposide 100 mg/m(2) on Days 1--3 with doxorubicin 50 mg/m(2) on Day 1, vincristine 1.4 mg/m(2) (maximum, 2 mg) on Day 1, and prednisone 100 mg on Days 1--5. With the addition of G-CSF at 200 microg/m(2) on Days 5--19, the MTD was cyclophosphamide 1500 mg/m(2) and etoposide 160 mg/m(2) on Days 1-3 with standard doses of doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone. Increasing the dose of G-CSF from 200 microg/m(2) to 400 microg/m(2) did not allow for further dose escalation. The primary toxicity in all cohorts was neutropenia. Four toxic deaths occurred on CALGB 8852. The 5-year failure free survival (FFS) and overall survival (OS) rates for eligible patients on CALGB 8852 were 31% (95% confidence interval [95%CI], 23--39) and 48% (95%CI, 40--57), respectively. The 5-year FFS and OS rates for eligible patients on CALGB 8854 were 34% (95%CI, 17--52) and 51% (95%CI, 33--70), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Moderate dose escalation with G-CSF is feasible. However, response and survival rates of patients who receive dose-escalated CHOPE, even with the addition of G-CSF, appear similar to the rates reported with standard-dose CHOP. 相似文献

The aim of the study was to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and safety of the combination of bortezomib and cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone (CHOP) as first-line therapy in advanced, aggressive T-cell lymphoma. Patients received increasing doses of bortezomib on days 1 and 8 (weekly schedule, 1.0, 1.3, and 1.6 mg/m2/dose) in addition to 750 mg/m2 cyclophosphamide, 50 mg/m2 doxorubicin, 1.4 mg/m2 vincristine on day 1 and 100 mg/day prednisolone on days 1 to 5, every 3 weeks. Six cycles of therapy administered every 21 days were planned. Thirteen patients, who had stage III/IV chemonaive aggressive T-cell lymphoma, received a total of 55 cycles of treatment. One patient experienced hematologic dose-limiting toxicity (grade 4 neutropenia associated with febrile episode) at the 1.0 mg/m2/dose of bortezomib. There was no dose-limiting non-hematologic toxicity. The MTD was not reached at 1.6 mg/m2 dose level of bortezomib. The overall complete remission rate in all patients was 61.5% (95% confidence interval = 31.6–86.1). Bortezomib can be safely combined with CHOP chemotherapy and constitutes an active regimen in advanced-stage, aggressive T-cell lymphoma patients. The recommended dose for subsequent phase II studies of bortezomib plus CHOP is 1.6 mg/m2/dose of bortezomib on days 1 and 8 every 3 weeks as first-line treatment. 相似文献

The role of high dose therapy, including autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in indolent non-Hodgkin's lymphomas remains controversial. We evaluated a dose intense regimen of CHOP induction followed by high dose cyclophosphamide consolidation (CHOP-HC) versus CHOP alone in a prospective comparison to assess intensified therapy without ASCT. Twenty-five patients with previously untreated advanced stage indolent NHL were enrolled: follicular lymphoma, grade 1 (11 patients) and grade 2 (8 patients); small lymphocytic lymphoma (5 patients); and lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (1 patient). All patients were treated as clinically indicated. The median age was 47 years (21-70). There were 15 males, and 10 females. Three patients had intra-abdominal stage II, 2 patients with stage III, and 20 patients with stage IV disease. All patients received induction with CHOP for 4 cycles (weeks 1,4,7,10): cyclophosphamide 750 mg/m 2 IV, doxorubicin 50 mg/m 2 IV, vincristine 1.4 mg/m 2 IV (2 mg capped dose) and prednisone 100 mg PO ×5 days. Following induction, responding patients were given consolidation with either high dose cyclophosphamide @ 3 gm/m 2 IV for 3 doses with G-CSF (weeks 13,15,17) or 2 additional cycles of CHOP (weeks 13,16), stratified by stage and bulk of disease. The overall response rate to CHOP was 92% (3 CR, 8 PR) and to CHOP-HC was 93% (4 CR, 8 PR). The overall response, complete response and partial response rates were comparable in both arms. Median progression free survival for CHOP was 15.9 and 23.0 months for CHOP-HC. At 74.3 months median follow-up, all patients in the CHOP arm have recurred; 3 patients in the CHOP-HC arm (3 CR) have not recurred. The median overall survival has not been reached (at 5 years, 77% OS for CHOP-HC versus 83% OS for CHOP alone]. Greater hematologic toxicity was observed with CHOP-HC resulting in an increased number of hospitalizations for sepsis. There were no treatment-related deaths. No myelodysplasia or acute leukemia has been seen to date. With no obvious improvement in CR and with greater hematologic toxicity than CHOP, CHOP-HC is not recommended for treatment of indolent non-Hodgkin's lymphomas. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to determine in a randomised trial whether there is any significant difference in toxicity between modified CHOP and MCOP chemotherapy in elderly patients with aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) and to determine whether this reduced dose chemotherapy can be administered with full dose intensity, low toxicity and produce acceptable survival. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Between 1993 and 2000, 155 eligible patients were randomised into this trial mainly from three centres (Nottingham, Birmingham and Leeds, UK). The patients were newly diagnosed with aggressive NHL and had a median age of 74 years (range 65-91 years). Ninety-six patients (62%) had bulky stage I or II disease; 59 patients (38%) had either stage III or IV disease; 77% had one or more extranodal sites involved at presentation; and 31% showed B symptoms. Seventy-seven patients were randomised to receive six cycles of modified CHOP (cyclophosphamide 600 mg/m(2) i.v., doxorubicin 30 mg/m(2) i.v., vincristine 1 mg i.v. all on day 1 with prednisolone 20 mg bd for days 1-5) every 21 days and 78 patients to MCOP (mitozantrone 10 mg/m(2) i.v. substituted for doxorubicin). Growth factors were not used routinely. After completion of chemotherapy, 39 patients received involved field radiotherapy (35-40 Gy) in 20 fractions. RESULTS: One hundred and one patients (65%) completed all six cycles of chemotherapy. The median course dose intensity was 97%. The median follow-up for 53 surviving patients was 51 months. The median survival was 19 months (95% confidence interval 10-36 months) with an actuarial survival of 47% at 2 years and 42% at 3 years (CHOP versus MCOP, P = 0.79). There was no significant difference in any of the toxicities experienced with either CHOP or MCOP, except for white cell count (46 patients on MCOP and 27 patients on CHOP had grade 3 or 4 toxicity, P = 0.002) and red cell transfusion (37 patients, MCOP; 17 patients, CHOP; P = 0.001). Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia was documented in 75 patients (50%). One patient died from toxicity whilst in remission and seven patients died with septicaemia and persistent NHL. CONCLUSION: This multicentre randomised trial provides further information on the dose intensity achievable with CHOP or MCOP regimens in elderly patients (median age 74 years) with aggressive NHL. These dose-reduced regimens can be given with nearly 100% dose intensity with 65% of patients completing all the treatment. Survival is comparable to that observed with the more intensive regimens given in this age group. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: To determine the incidence of early cardiotoxicity induced by the CHOP regimen in patients with aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) and to identify associated risk factors. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A retrospective analysis included 135 consecutive patients who had been treated with the CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristin, prednisone) regimen as first-line therapy between 1994 and 2000. The cardiac evaluation was based on a determination of the resting left ventricular ejection function (LVEF) by gated blood-pool imaging. Cardiotoxicity was defined as a significant decrease in LVEF or clinical evidence of congestive heart failure (CHF). RESULTS: Twenty-seven (20%) patients developed a cardiac event within 1 year of treatment. Among these, 14 patients had clinical signs of CHF. Three patients died suddenly from presumed cardiac causes. In multivariate analysis, a cumulative dose of doxorubicin >200 mg/m(2) [odds ratio (OR) = 4.2, P = 0.005)] and age over 50 years (OR = 2.9, P = 0.03) appeared to be significant risk factors. CONCLUSION: Early clinical and subclinical cardiotoxicity was frequent in patients receiving the CHOP regimen. The threshold of the cumulative dose of doxorubicin appeared to be low: at doses >200 mg/m(2), 27% of patients had cardiac events. Elderly patients appeared to be at higher risk. The development of cardioprotective strategies or alternative treatments are mandatory for aggressive NHL patients. 相似文献

Background: In a previous study we applied doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide in a dose-intensive regimen with GM-CSF to patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC). That treatment failed to prolong the remission duration compared to conventional-dose chemotherapy. In the present study we escalated the dosages of the same agents to: 1) determine the maximum tolerated dosages (MTD) when given for three cycles with G-CSF mobilised peripheral blood progenitor cell (PBPC) reinfusion and 2) evaluate the antitumour effect of this regimen.Patients and methods: For mobilisation of PBPC, G-CSF 15 µg/kg/day was given subcutaneously (s.c.), and in subsequent cohorts leucapheresis was started on days 3, 4 or 6. The intention was to treat MBC patients with three cycles of doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide at a starting dose of doxorubicin 90 mg/m2 and cyclophosphamide 1000 mg/m2. Dosages were then escalated in subsequent cohorts of at least three patients. In case of dose-limiting mucositis, only the dose of cyclophosphamide was escalated in the next cohort.Results: Twenty-one patients entered this protocol, of which 18 patients received high-dose chemotherapy. The mobilisation of PBPC using G-CSF only was sufficient for three cycles of high-dose chemotherapy in 10 of 21 (47%) patients. Mucositis precluded dose escalation of doxorubicin beyond 110 mg/m2. The MTD in this combination was 110 mg/m2 for doxorubicin, and 4 g/m2 for cyclophosphamide, with haemorrhagic cystitis being the dose-limiting toxicity. The overall response rate was 78% (95% confidence interval (95% CI): 57%–97%), with 22% (95% CI: 3%–41%) complete responses.Conclusion: The MTD of this three cycle high-dose regimen was doxorubicin 110 mg/m2 and cyclophosphamide 4 g/m2 with mucositis and cystitis being dose-limiting toxicities. Although the primary aim was not the evaluation of antitumour effect, this high-dose regimen does not appear to provide an improvement of treatment results in comparison with our previous study with the same drugs at moderately high-dosages without stem cell support. 相似文献

A Phase I study of paclitaxel and doxorubicin administered as concurrent 96-h continuous i.v. infusion was performed to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), principal toxicities, and pharmacokinetics of this combination in women with relapsed epithelial ovarian cancer. The paclitaxel dose was fixed at 100 mg/m2 (25 mg/m2/day for 4 days). The dose of doxorubicin was escalated from 30 mg/m2 (7.5 mg/m2/day for 4 days) in increments of 10 mg/m2 until dose-limiting toxicity was observed. All patients received granulocyte colony-stimulating factor 5 microg/kg/day prophylactically. Apparent steady-state plasma levels of both drugs were determined in the final cohort of patients treated at the MTD. A total of 17 patients received 52 cycles of therapy. The median age was 58 years, and all patients had previously received one to five different regimens (median, 2) of chemotherapy, including both platinum and paclitaxel. The treatment was tolerated well, with grade 1-2 nausea being the most frequent side effect (73% of cycles). Anemia, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and mucositis became dose limiting at the fourth dose level, defining the MTD of doxorubicin in this regimen as 50 mg/m2. There were four partial responses and one complete response in 15 evaluable patients. Apparent steady-state plasma concentrations (mean +/- SD) of paclitaxel and doxorubicin in the three patients treated at the MTD were 33.9 +/- 12.5 nM and 15.7 +/- 1.3 nM, respectively. Paclitaxel and doxorubicin by continuous infusion is a well-tolerated and active chemotherapy regimen for recurrent ovarian cancer. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: The authors investigated the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose limiting toxicity (DLT) associated with the addition of a biomodulating dose of gemcitabine to an established regimen of ifosfamide and doxorubicin as part of a program to explore the potential of low-dose gemcitabine to modulate the activity of alkylating agents. METHODS: A Phase I trial was carried out in a population of patients with bladder or pelvic carcinoma for whom no standard therapy was available. Doses of ifosfamide and doxorubicin were held fixed at 2 g/m(2) for 4 days and 20 mg/m(2) for 3 days, respectively. Gemcitabine was given on Day 2 and Day 4 at doses of 90 mg/m(2), 150 mg/m(2), and 200 mg/m(2) per dose. RESULTS: A total of 18 patients received 53 courses of therapy. Myelosuppression was dose limiting. Nonhematologic toxicity also was significant, with 10 of 18 patients experiencing toxicity of Grade 3 or greater. For previously untreated patients with an intact performance status, the MTD for gemcitabine in this context was at least 150 mg/m(2) per dose. According to an intent-to-treat analysis, 11 of 18 patients demonstrated a clinically significant response to this regimen. CONCLUSIONS: The regimen of ifosfamide and doxorubicin with the addition of gemcitabine was significantly toxic but has promising activity. Based on the observed activity and the generally reversible nature of the toxicity, the authors have initiated a Phase II trial of this regimen in patients with untreated, metastatic urothelial carcinoma. 相似文献

We assessed the feasibility and pharmacokinetics of high-dose infusional paclitaxel in combination with doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, and peripheral blood progenitor cell rescue. Between October 1995 and June 1998, 63 patients with high-risk primary [stage II with >or= 10 axillary nodes involved, stage IIIA or stage IIIB inflammatory carcinoma (n = 53)] or with stage IV responsive breast cancer (n = 10) received paclitaxel 150-775 mg/m(2)infused over 24 hours, doxorubicin 165 mg/m(2)as a continuous infusion over 96 hours, and cyclophosphamide 100 mg kg(-1). There were no treatment-related deaths. Dose-limiting toxicity was reversible, predominantly sensory neuropathy following administration of paclitaxel at the 775 mg/m(2) dose level. Paclitaxel pharmacokinetics were non-linear at higher dose levels; higher paclitaxel dose level, AUC, and peak concentrations were associated with increased incidence of paraesthesias. No correlation between stomatitis, haematopoietic toxicities, and paclitaxel dose or pharmacokinetics was found. Kaplan-Meier estimates of 30-month event-free and overall survival for patients with primary breast carcinoma are 65% (95% CI; 51-83%) and 77% (95% CI; 64-93%). Paclitaxel up to 725 mg/m(2) infused over 24 hours in combination with with doxorubicin 165 mg/m(2) and cyclophosphamide 100 mg kg(-1) is tolerable. A randomized study testing this regimen against high-dose carboplatin, thiotepa and cyclophosphamide (STAMP V) is currently ongoing. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Dose intensity is important in the response to chemotherapy in patients with advanced neuroblastoma. The aim of the current study was to determine the maximum tolerated dose of a combination chemotherapy regimen in the treatment of patients with recurrent neuroblastoma and peripheral neuroepithelioma (primitive neuroectodermal tumor [PNET]) and whether the use of growth factor would allow increased dose intensity. METHODS: Twenty-nine patients diagnosed with recurrent neuroblastoma or PNET were treated with a combination chemotherapy regimen of cisplatin, 160 mg/m(2)/96 hours; doxorubicin, 40 mg/m(2)/96 hours; and escalated doses of etoposide and ifosfamide. Granulocyte-macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) was administered beginning 24 hours after the completion of the chemotherapy. Courses were repeated at 28-day intervals. Once the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was defined the interval between courses was shortened by administering the next course as soon as the patient's neutrophil and platelet counts had recovered to > 1500/microL and > 75,000/microL, respectively. RESULTS: Sixteen patients were treated at 3 dose levels. The MTD was defined as 10 g/m(2)/96 hours of ifosfamide and 800 mg/m(2)/96 hours of etoposide. Thirteen additional patients then were treated at 1 level below the MTD to try and decrease the interval between courses. A total of 12 of 29 patients developed a dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) after the first course of therapy. The most common DLT was gastrointestinal toxicity followed by hematologic toxicity. Twenty-seven patients developed standard National Cancer Institute criteria Grade 3 or 4 toxicity after the first course of treatment and 7 patients achieved a complete or partial response to the first course. The use of GM-CSF did not allow further dose intensification. CONCLUSIONS: This chemotherapy combination achieved a 31% overall response rate. A further increase in the dose intensity of this regimen may require supportive measures other than GM-CSF to decrease toxicity. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) of combined paclitaxel, epirubicin and cyclophosphamide in patients with metastatic breast cancer. The dose of paclitaxel was planned to be escalated from 150 to 225 mg/m(2)in 25 mg/m(2) steps, while the doses of epirubicin and cyclophosphamide were fixed at 50 and 500 mg/m(2), respectively. Because of DLT, the dose of paclitaxel was maintained at 200 mg/m(2) and the dose of epirubicin was increased to 90 mg/m(2). The MTD was reached at a dose of paclitaxel and epirubicin of 200 and 75 mg/m(2), respectively. DLT were mainly febrile neutropenia and grade 4 neutropenia lasting for > or =7 days. Among the 35 evaluable patients, there were 2 (6%) complete responses and 19 (53%) partial responses for an overall response rate of 59% [95% confidence interval (CI): 41-74%]. The triplet paclitaxel/epirubicin/cyclophosphamide is an effective and well-tolerated combination worthy of further investigation in the treatment of patients with metastatic breast cancer. 相似文献

Summary a novel approach to enhance the activity of doxorubicin is to increase the availability of cellular chelatable iron to participate in doxorubicin-mediated free-radical generation. To achieve this, we designed a regimen consisting of desferrioxamine (DFO, 50 mg/kg daily given as an i. v. infusion over 72 h) to increase cellular iron uptake. Thereafter, the combination of iron sorbitol citrate (ISC) and doxorubicin (as a single agent or as part of the CHOP regimen) was given. In a phase I study we investigated the toxicity of this regimen in nine patients with refractory malignant disease. Severe but reversible ocular toxicity (i. e., acute maculopathy) was observed in two patients. As these patients were the only ones who were pretreated with cisplatin, we caution against the use of DFO in cisplatin-pretreated patients. Severe phlebitis was encountered in five of nine patients. A partial remission was observed in two of four patients with refractory Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma who were treated with DFO, ISC, and doxorubicin as part of the CHOP regimen. We conclude that pretreatment with DFO and iron sorbitol citrate may be of benefit in the treatment of malignancies with doxorubicin-containing regimens, but ocular toxicity and severe phlebitis limits the use of DFO in this approach. The attachment of DFO to biocompatible polymers may be a method of overcoming the observed toxicity and warrants further study.Abbreviations PR

The purpose of this study was to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of infusional gemcitabine given in conjunction with intravenous (i.v.) cyclophosphamide, and to determine whether the regimen produced a response rate of at least 40% in patients with metastatic breast cancer who have been previously treated with taxanes. Patients received cyclophosphamide (600 mg/m2) i.v. followed immediately by gemcitabine (100, 150, or 200 mg/m2) given as a 24-hour infusion (every 3 weeks) using an accelerated dose-escalation schema. Dose-limiting toxicity was defined as a neutrophil nadir < 500/microL, platelet nadir < 50,000/microL, or > or = grade 2 nonhematologic toxicity (> or = grade 3 toxicity during the standard dose-escalation portion of the study). Twelve patients received a total of 32 cycles of therapy. The MTD of gemcitabine was 150 mg/m2. Dose-limiting toxicities at 200 mg/m2 included neutropenia and mucositis. One patient with lymphangitic lung metastases had a partial response (8%; 95% confidence intervals: 0%, 23%). This patient developed grade 4 transaminase and total bilirubin elevation that occurred after the sixth cycle of therapy. The study was terminated due to an insufficient number of responses. The MTD of gemcitabine given as a 24-hour infusion is 150 mg/m2 when used in conjunction with cyclophosphamide (600 mg/m2) every 3 weeks. This regimen is not likely to produce more than a 40% response rate in patients with metastatic breast cancer previously treated with taxanes. 相似文献

Purpose. We studied sequential dose-dense doxorubicin, paclitaxel, and 5-fluorouracil (A-T-F) before high dose chemotherapy (HDC) with autologous peripheral blood stem cell support (PBSCT). Our aims were to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of 5-FU in the dose-dense regimen and to determine the impact of dose-dense chemotherapy on HDC/PBSCT.
Methods. Patients with Stage IIIB or Stage II or IIIA breast cancer with 4 involved ipsilateral lymph nodes were treated with nine cycles of chemotherapy at 14-day intervals. The regimen was doxorubicin at 80 mg/m2 × 3, followed by paclitaxel at 140 mg/m2 over 96 h × 3, then 5-FU at doses of 1285, 1470, or 1655 mg/m2 by continuous intravenous infusion over 72 h × 3. Patients then underwent a G-CSF-stimulated peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) apheresis prior to receiving HDC with autologous PBSCT.
Results. We identified 1285 mg/m2 as the MTD of 5-FU in this regimen. 5-FU-related DLTs included hand-foot syndrome, mucositis, and facial edema with somnolence. Unexpectedly, 3/19 treated patients developed congestive heart failure that prevented planned HDC. Compared to standard dose doxorubicin-containing adjuvant therapy, the dose-dense regimen also decreased CD34+ PBSC yields by about 40% (p = 0.049), requiring that 50% of patients have a supplemental bone marrow harvest. There was no difference in time to neutrophil, platelet, and red blood cell recovery after HDC.
Conclusions. This regimen resulted in an unacceptably high rate of cardiac toxicity and is not recommended for further testing. It may be feasible to use a different schedule of 5-FU-containing dose-dense chemotherapy, particularly for the induction therapy of high-risk primary breast cancer prior to novel targeted therapies. 相似文献

A randomized multicenter phase III study was conducted to compare the efficacy and toxicity of CHOP and CNOP in intermediate and high-grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. CHOP consisted of cyclophosphamide 750 mg/m2, vincristine 1.4 mg/m2, doxorubicin 50 mg/m2 on day 1 and prednisone 50 mg/m2 on days 1 to 5. The CNOP regimen was identical to CHOP except for replacement of doxorubicin by 10 mg/m2 mitoxantrone. Patient characteristics were evenly distributed in the two arms, except for age and stage, which slightly favoured the CHOP arm. The rate of complete remission was 70% (31/44) in patients treated with CHOP and 51% (23/45) in those receiving CNOP (P = 0.09). At 48 months and with a median follow-up of 41 months, 44% of the complete responders treated with CHOP and 64% of those treated with CNOP were estimated to still be in their first complete remission (P = 0.14), while 31% and 34% remained alive and free of progression. The Kaplan-Meier estimate of overall survival at 48 months is 53% and 50%, respectively. The higher response rate obtained with CHOP probably reflected a less aggressive lymphoma population. The mean WBC nadir was 2.0 x 10(9)/l for CHOP and 1.8 x 10(9)/l for CNOP. One and three patients, respectively, died during induction. Nausea, vomiting and cardiac toxicity were similar. More alopecia and mucositis were observed with CHOP. We conclude that CHOP and CNOP have similar toxicities and are equivalent in previously untreated non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in terms of complete response rate, event-free survival and overall survival. 相似文献
