Is Intravenous and Oral Topotecan in Small-Cell Lung Cancer Truly Equal? A Case Report [PDF]
Introduction: Treatment with topotecan is standard-of-care therapy for relapsed small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). Both oral and intravenous administrations of topotecan have been extensively researched and are found to be equally effective with less adverse

Triggering of Suicidal Erythrocyte Death by Topotecan [PDF]
Background/Aims: The topoisomerase I inhibitor topotecan is used as treatment of various malignancies. The substance is effective by triggering tumor cell apoptosis. In analogy to apoptosis of nucleated cells, erythrocytes may enter eryptosis, a suicidal

Therapeutic uses of topotecan for thoracic malignancies
Topotecan, a topoisomerase 1 inhibitor (topo1-i), is a semi-synthetic derivative of camptothecan with wellestablished cytotoxic properties. It is licensed for the treatment of relapsed, sensitive small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and for second line ...

Inhibition of Poly(ADP-Ribose) polymerase enhances the toxicity of 131I-Metaiodobenzylguanidine/Topotecan combination therapy to cells and xenografts that express the noradrenaline transporter [PDF]
Targeted radiotherapy using [131I]meta-iodobenzylguanidine ([131I]MIBG) has produced remissions in some neuroblastoma patients. We previously reported that combining [131I]MIBG with the topoisomerase I (Topo-I) inhibitor topotecan induced long-term DNA ...

Transformation to Small-Cell Lung Carcinoma and Then to Sarcomatoid Carcinoma in an EGFR-Mutant Lung Adenocarcinoma Patient During Systemic Therapy: A Case Report. [PDF]
An EGFR‐mutant lung adenocarcinoma underwent sequential histological transformations to combined small‐cell carcinoma and sarcomatoid carcinoma during systemic therapy. Serial re‐biopsy demonstrated dynamic tumor evolution and molecular alterations associated with treatment resistance.
