Multidrug combination in cancer chemotherapy: MFU therapy.
Three-drug therapy with Mitomycin-C (MMC), 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), and a nitrosourea derivative, ACNU, was carried out in 72 cases of carcinoma patients, mostly of stomach carcinoma. 1) According to Karnofsky's criteria, an effect of above I-A was observed in 10 of 35 cases (29%) treated with MFU-I (0.08 mg/kg of MMC, 10 mg/kg of 5-FU and 0.4-0.8 mg/kg of ACNU twice a week for the first two week...

Breast cancer is the most prevalent cancer in women. Chemotherapy is the main strategy in the treatment of this disease especially in the advanced form of the disease. Despite the recent progress in the development of new chemotherapy, the effectiveness of these drugs has dramatically reduced due to multidrug resistance.

متن کاملNanotechnology-based combination therapy for overcoming multidrug-resistant cancer
Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a major obstacle to successful cancer treatment and is crucial to cancer metastasis and relapse. Combination therapy is an effective strategy for overcoming MDR. However, the different pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles of combined drugs often undermine the combination effect in vivo, especially when greatly different physicochemical properties (e.g., those of macromole...
متن کاملIdarubicin-bromelain combination sensitizes cancer cells to conventional chemotherapy
Objective(s): The primary cytotoxic effects of anticancer drugs like idarubicin, a chemotherapeutic agent, are not limited to neoplastic cells; they also produce similar effects in normal cells. In this study, we hypothesized that the combination of idarubicin-bromelain could make cancer cells more susceptible to cytotoxicity and genotoxicity.Material...
