More recently, a German study compared a dose-escalated regimen of BEACOPP (with filgrastim support) with standard-dose bleomycin, etoposide, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, procarbazine, prednisone, gemcitabine (BEACOPP) and COPP alternating with ABVD (C—cyclophosphamide instead of mechlorethamine for MOPP).18 The escalated BEACOPP was... [Pg.1378]

Increased toxicity has been noted when given concurrently with vincristine and prednisone. Decreased metabolism when used with cyclophosphamide. [Pg.1408]

LL, a 47-year-old man, was diagnosed with high-risk diffuse large cell B-cell non-Hodgkin s lymphoma (NHL) 12 months ago. LL had a complete response to his initial treatment of six cycles of RCHOP (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone). LL is participating in a clinical trial and is randomized to receive a myeloablative autologous HCT TBI days 8 to 5, etoposide day 4, rest day 3, cyclophosphamide day 2, rest day 1, with infusion of autologous PBPC on day 0. [Pg.1452]

BR arrives at the clinic to receive her first dose of R-CHOP (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone) at full doses. [Pg.1470]

The answer is a. (Hardman, p 1302.) Cyclophosphamide, an alkylating agent, reacts with purine and pyrimidine bases of DNA to form bridges and dimers. These products interfere with DNA replication. 5-FU, methotrexate, and 6-thioguanine are anti metabolites, and the steroid prednisone has some tumor-suppressive effects. [Pg.94]

Standard combination regimens (e.g., CHOP) yield disappointing results. Newer approaches including dose-adjusted EPOCH (etoposide, prednisone, vincristine, cyclophosphamide, and doxorubicin), and rituximab-containing combination chemotherapy are promising. [Pg.724]

In addition, combination therapy trials of rituximab with CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone) in refractory and newly diagnosed patients suggests that rituximab may also have a role in the eradication of residual disease. This combination appears to be a viable treatment option for relapsed low-grade non-Hodgkin lymphoma... [Pg.222]

Minimal-change disease is more common in children than in adults. It is rare in black children and adults of sub-Saharan Africa. Minimal-change responds well to steroids. However, it may recur after prednisone is decreased or discontinued. In such cases, the addition of cyclophosphamide or chlorambucil may produce a response. The GFR is normal. Progression to renal failure does not occur unless focal glomerulosclerosis is present. [Pg.613]

Rapid progression of Kaposi s sarcoma 10 weeks after combined treatment with glucocorticoids and cyclophosphamide has been described marked improvement of the skin lesions was noted after discontinuation of prednisone therapy (360). [Pg.40]

Cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan and Endoxan) is used in the treatment of Hodgkin s disease, lymphosarcoma, and other lymphomas. It is employed as a secondary drug in patients with acute leukemia and in combination with doxorubicin in women with breast cancer. A drug combination effective in the treatment of breast cancer is cyclophosphamide, methotrexate, fluorouracil, and prednisone (CMFP). Cyclophosphamide is also an immunosuppressive agent. The toxicity of cyclophosphamide causes alopecia, bone marrow depression, nausea and vomiting, and hemorrhagic cystitis. [Pg.112]
