Panitumumab versus cetuximab in combination with irinotecan in refractory metastatic colorectal cancer

open access: yesCancer Treatment and Research Communications
Purpose: There is evidence that adding cetuximab can overcome resistance to irinotecan, but a similar analysis with Panitumumab isn't readily available. This study evaluated the activity of each anti-EGFR plus irinotecan as a salvage third-line treatment

Voltammetric Characterisation of Anticancer Drug Irinotecan

open access: yes, 2017
Electrochemical reduction of irinotecan was investigated on a static mercury drop electrode using square-wave voltammetry. The mechanism of irinotecan electroreduction is a complex, pH-dependent, quasireversible process and includes the transfer of two ...

Impact of RAS/RAF Mutations on Metastatic Treatment Response Following Total Neoadjuvant Therapy in Patients With Stage IV Rectal Cancer

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Clinical Oncology, EarlyView.
There is limited understanding of the impact of underlying RAS/RAF mutational status on total neoadjuvant therapy metastatic tumor response rates in curative Stage IV rectal cancer patients. Complete metastatic tumor response to TNT was demonstrated in half as many mRAS as wtRAS patients and disease progression was higher in patients harboring RAS ...

Irinotecan in the Treatment of Colorectal Cancer: Clinical Overview

open access: yes, 2001
PURPOSE AND METHODS: For more than three decades, the therapeutic options for patients with advanced colorectal cancer have almost exclusively been based on fluoropyrimidines. With the recognition that topoisomerase-I (TOP-I) is an important therapeutic

Delivery of nano‐formulated drugs to solid tumours is selectively increased by co‐application of the vascular disrupting agent CA4P

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and purpose Nano‐formulated chemotherapeutics prolong systemic availability of drugs and can reduce systemic toxicity, but their accumulation in solid tumours is often limited and unpredictable. Broadly applicable strategies to selectively enhance tumour delivery are lacking.

Development and analytical validation of a targeted short‐read next generation sequencing‐based pharmacogenetic panel for comprehensive variant detection

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Genomic profiling of patients for genetic variants that modify the effect of specific medications has many benefits, including the possibility of avoiding toxicities and ensuring an adequate effect of the medication. Our intention was to develop a comprehensive, high‐quality pharmacogenetic test panel for clinical use ...

Response of small intestinal epithelial cells to irinotecan.

open access: yes, 2013
(A) Significant decrease in the number of BrdU postive cells in the small intestinal crypts of irinotecan-treated mice. WT mice were injected with PBS (cont) or irinotecan (CPT) for 6 consecutive days and sacrificed on day 7. One hour prior to sacrifice,

Semi-physiological model of irinotecan PK.

open access: yes, 2020
Compartments were minimised to the most important components, Liver to accurately represent drug delivery, Blood which is measurement site and Organs to represent the rest of the body. Ci is the rate constant of clearance from compartment i.

Ischaemic stroke and 5‐fluorouracil or capecitabine: A systematic review and meta‐analysis of harms and a retrospective study of the WHO pharmacovigilance database

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Fluoropyrimidines, including 5‐fluorouracil (5‐FU) and capecitabine, are cornerstone antineoplastic agents for cancer. Case reports suggest that these drugs may be associated with an under‐recognised risk of ischaemic stroke or transient ischaemic attack (TIA).
