Identification of Sestrin3 Involved in the In vitro Resistance of Colorectal Cancer Cells to Irinotecan.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Irinotecan, an analogue of camptothecin, is frequently used as a single agent or in combination with other anticancer drugs for the treatment of colorectal cancer. However, the drug resistance of tumors is a major obstacle to successful cancer treatment.

A phase I evaluation of the effect of curcumin on dose‐limiting toxicity and pharmacokinetics of irinotecan in participants with solid tumors

open access: yesClinical and Translational Science, 2022
Curcumin inhibits UDP‐glucuronyltransferases, a primary metabolic pathway for cancer chemotherapeutic agents like irinotecan. Concurrent administration of both agents may exacerbate irinotecan toxicity.

Liposomal Irinotecan Shows a Larger Therapeutic Index than Non-liposomal Irinotecan in Patient-Derived Xenograft Models of Pancreatic Cancer

open access: yesOncology and Therapy, 2023
Introduction Liposomal irinotecan promotes controlled sustained release of irinotecan (CPT-11), therefore, we hypothesize that the therapeutic index (quantitative measurement of the relative efficacy/safety ratio of a drug) will be higher for liposomal ...

Characterization of mucin 2 expression in colorectal cancer with and without chemotherapies, in vivo and in vitro study

open access: yesJournal of Umm Al-Qura University for Medical Science, 2021
Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third and second most prevalent cancer affecting males and females, respectively. 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and irinotecan are the main chemotherapies for CRC.

Association between a single nucleotide polymorphism in the R3HCC1 gene and irinotecan toxicity

open access: yesCancer Medicine, 2023
Objective Irinotecan is a useful anticancer drug for colorectal cancer treatment. UGT1A1*28 and *6 gene polymorphisms are known risk factors for irinotecan‐associated toxicity.

Weekly irinotecan in a patient with metastatic colorectal cancer on hemodialysis due to chronic renal failure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Background: The cytotoxic treatment of patients suffering from advanced or metastatic cancer undergoing hemodialysis due to chronic renal failure still remains a problem, since for those patients pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic data on most cytotoxic
