Platinum-based chemotherapeutic drugs are irreplaceable for the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, acquired drug resistance has become a major obstacle for the clinical application of chemotherapy on NSCLC. In the present study, we established carboplatin-resistant NSCLC models on A549 and PC9 cell lines, which were named A549/R and PC9/R. Besides the low sensiti...

OBJECTIVE Platinum (Pt) based drugs including cisplatin and carboplatin are widely used as anticancer drugs in various human cancers. Many studies have shown that chemotherapeutic agents synergistically enhance cell death induced by death ligands. However it has been recently reported that cisplatin may inhibit tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL)-induced cell death t...

BACKGROUND We determined the objective response rates produced by pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) plus carboplatin with/without trastuzumab (Herceptin). PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with measurable disease were stratified by taxane treatment history and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 status. TREATMENT PLD 30 mg/m(2) followed by carboplatin, day 1 of each 28-day cycle; human...

BACKGROUND This study aimed to evaluate acute major toxicities, the response rate, 3-year overall survival and progression-free survival rate of locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients on concurrent carboplatin chemoradiotherapy followed by carboplatin and 5-fluorouracil. METHODS A prospective study of fifty patients diagnosed with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma received...

Vesicles 107 ± 19 nm in diameter, based on the self-assembly of tetra-para-phosphonomethyl calix[4]- arene bearing n-hexyl moieties attached to the phenolic oxygen centres, are effective in binding carboplatin within the cavity of the macrocycle under shear induced within a dynamic thin film in a continuous flow vortex fluidic device. Post shearing the vesicles maintain similar diameters and re...

BACKGROUND When using area under the concentration-time curve-based strategies for dosing carboplatin, accurate estimation of glomerular filtration rate is required for determining dose. Commonly, the Cockcroft-Gault equation is used, which is dependent on measurement of serum creatinine (SCr). Because analysis of SCr changed to an isotope dilution mass spectrometry (IDMS) standard, we sought t...

•Treatment of sex-cord stromal tumors with carboplatin and taxane is both feasible and safe.•FOXL2 mutations account for approximately 50% of these tumors.•Carboplatin and taxane may afford a favorable outcome.

Several studies in the past have tried to improve the prognosis of ovarian cancer by increasing the dose intensity of platinum. Only 2 out of 12 randomized studies showed survival benefit at the cost of significant long-term toxicity. Dose-dense induction therapy with combined weekly paclitaxel (at a dose of 90 mg/m(2)) and weekly carboplatin [at an area under the curve (AUC) of 4 mg·ml/min] fo...

We attempt to study the efficacy and adverse reactions of carboplatin, nab-paclitaxel regimen combined with atezolizumab in non-small cell lung cancer treatment. randomly selected 120 patients who received therapy our hospital from January 2019 December 2021 divided them into two groups, 60 cases respectively. Treated control group carboplatin paclitaxel pembrolizumab, while observation albumin...
