  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of anorexia induced by consecutive low-dose and high-dose of cisplatin (CDDP) on the hindlimb muscles of rats. Methods: Male Sprague-Dawley rats were assigned to three groups: Control group (C) received a saline (the same dose and duration as the low CDDP group), the high-dose cisplatin (High CDDP) group received a single 5 mg/kg dose of cisplatin, the consecutive low-dose cisplatin (Low CDDP) group had 1 mg/kg of cisplatin administered for five consecutive days. On the 8th day the soleus and gastrocnemius muscles were dissected. Body weight, food intake, activity, muscle weight, Type I, II fiber cross-sectional area (CSA) of the dissected muscles were measured. Results: Body weight, food intake, muscle weight and Type I, II fiber CSA of the High CDDP and Low CDDP groups were significantly less than the C group. The High CDDP group showed significant decreases, compared to the Low CDDP group, in body weight, food intake, activity score, muscle weight and Type I, II fiber CSA. Conclusion: Hindlimb muscle atrophy occurs due to anorexia induced by both consecutive low-dose and high-dose cisplatin. The muscle atrophy induced by consecutive low-dose cisplatin is less apparent than high-dose cisplatin.

  • A subacute toxicity study of cis-Malonato[(4R,5R)-4,5-bis(aminomethyl)-2-isopropyl-1,3-dioxolane]platinum(II)(SKI 2053R) was carried out to obtain information on its toxicological profiles, and to determine the maximum tolerated dose in beagle dogs. Four groups of beagle dogs (2M and 2F per group, 0,0.5,1.0,2.0mg/kg/day)were given 15 i.v. injections of SKI 2053R. In order to compare the toxic effects of SKI 2053R with those of cisplatin, one group was treated with cisplatin(0.7mg/kg/day)according to the same treatment schedule. The dosing schedule was divided into 3 courses of 5 consecutive days with 23-day dose-free intervals between each course. After completion of the treatments, remaining dogs were necropsied under established guidelines. Three of four dogs in the high dose group and one of four dogs in the middle dose group treated with SKI 2053R died of hypovolemic shock secondary to hemorrhagic and ulcerative enterocolitis. No toxicity-related mortality occurred in the low dose group of SKI 2053R. No survivor was observed in the group of cisplatin. Clinical signs including vomiting, diarrhea, anorexia and loss body weight were apparent in dogs given either cisplatin or high and middle doses of SKI 2053R. Severe thrombocytopenia and leukocytopenia were observed in the high dose group of SKI 2053R and cisplatin-treatment group, while toxicities as bone marrow suppression were reversible. The significant elevation of serum ALP values in group of SKI 2053R(2.0 mg/kg/day and 1.0mg/kg/day) and cisplatin(0.7mg/kg/day)was observed. Slight proteinuria waa observed in high and middle dose level groups of SKI 2053R. In histopathological examinations, pathological alterations of liver, kidney and spleen were noted dose-dependantly in dogs treated with SKI 2053R, and there was no overt sign of toxicity in low dose group of SKI 2053R. Compared to SKI 2053R, more severe durg-related toxicities occurred in dogs treated with cisplatin. It waw estimated that maximum tolerated dose of SKI 2053R in this treatment schedule was 0.5~0.7mg/kg/day. In conclusion, overall toxic potential of SKI 2053R was approximately 3 times lower than that of cisplatin with respect of lethality.

  • 배 경 : 전체 폐암의 75%를 차지하고 있는 비소세포폐암의 항암요법은 Cisplatin을 근간으로 하여 최근 여러 가지 새로운 항암제들이 개발되어 사용하고 있다. Cisplatin의 충분한 항암효과를 기대할 수 있는 용량을 결정하는데 중요한 것이 용량 제한성 (dose-limiting) 부작용으로, 결국 악성종양세포와 정상세포를 구분할 수 없어 발생하게 되며 이는 한번의 고용량(single high dose) 및 축적되는 용량(cumulative dose) 모두에서 생길 수 있어 최근 화학적 보호제제들을 사용 하여 이러한 cisplatinn의 용량 제한성 부작용들을 최소화시키면서 고용량의 cisplatin을 시도해 항암효과를 강화시키려는 연구가 많이 시행되고 있다. 방 법 : 비소세포폐암세포주(폐선암과 폐편평상피암)와 정상 폐포상피세포주에서 각각 단계적으로 cisplatin용량을 고용량으로 증량시키면서 세포독성효과를 먼저 비교 하고 다시 glutathione을 함께 투여하였을 때 glutathione이 고용량 cisplatin의 세포독성에 미치는 효과를 각 세포주들에서 비교하였다(SPSS 10.0 ANOVA test p<0.05) 결 과 : 폐선암세포주는 결과의 차이가 심해 비교하기가 힘드나 나타난 결과로 볼 때 glutathione의 투여는 cisplatin의 항암효과를 상쇄시켜 임상에서 투여하는데는 문제가 있을 것으로 생각된다. 폐편평상피암세포 주와 정상폐상피세포주 두가지를 같은 cisplatin 농도와 glutathione 농도에서 비교하였는데 Cisplatin 농도는 0, 30, 60, 125 ${\mu}g$/ml의 4 단계의 농도에서 비교 하였고 결과는 편평상피폐암세포주에서는 glutathione 농도 100 ${\mu}g$/ml 에서 76.6-81.5%, 250 ${\mu}g$/ml에서 80.5-93.2% 정도로 생존율을 나타내고 정상폐상피세포주에서 glutathione농도 100, 250 ${\mu}g$/ml 모두에서 91.5-100%까지 90%이상의 생존율을 유지하였다. (ANOVA test p<0.05) 결 론 : glutathione은 정상폐상피세포주에서 고농도 cisplatin에 의한 세포독성에 대한 보호효과가 크다.

  • 연구배경 : 절제가 불가능한 비소세포 폐암 환자에 대한 복합화학요법의 유용성은 아직도 분명치 않다. 그러나, cisplatin을 주축으로하는 복합화학요법의 반응율은 항암제 단독 투여시의 반응율 보다, 또한 high-dose cisplatin군의 반응율이 low-dose cisplatin군의 반응율보다 높은 것으로 최근 보고되고 있다. 복합화학요법(high VPP), 복합화학요법과 방사선 치료의 병행요법이 진행된 비소세포 폐암에서 생존율을 증가시키는지 알아보기 위해 본 연구를 시작하였다. 방법 : 조직학적으로 비소세포 폐암으로 진단된 stage III이상의 환자 35명을 대상으로 하였다. 이들중, 19명은 VP-16과 high-dose cisplatin(100 $mg/m^2$)으로 구성되는 복합화학요법 그리고 복합화학요법과 방사선 치료를 시행받았으며, 나머지 16명은 치료를 받지 않았다. 두군간의 생존율과 반응율의 차이 및 치료에 다른 부작용을 알아보기 위해 환자의 병록 일지를 검토하였다. 결과: 1) 전체적인 객관적 반응율은 한명의 완전관해를 포함하여 47%(9/19) 였다. 2) 복합화학요법과 방사선 치료를 병행하여 받은 환자군에서의 반응율은 한명의 완전관해를 포함하여 60%(6/10) 였으며, 3개월, 6개월 및 127개월 생존율은 각각 100%, 70% 및 40% 였다. 3) 복합화학요법을 받은 환자군에서의 반응율은 완전관해 없이 33%(3/9) 였으며, 3개월, 6개월 및 12개월 생존율은 각각 78%, 67% 및 33% 였다. 4) 전체적으로 치료군에서 비치료군에 비해 통계적으로 유의하게 (p<0.05) 생존기간이 연장되었다(중앙생간 307일과 95일). 5) 여러 예후인자에 따른 분석에서 운동능력이 좋을수록, stage III에서 그리고 편평상피암에서 좋은 반응율을 보였다. 6) 부작용으로서는 오성과 구토(100%), 탈모증(90%), 빈혈(79%), 백혈구 감소증 (69%), 혈소판 감소증(2%), creatinine의 증가(16%) 그리고 신경독성(5%) 등이 있었다. 결론 : 이상의 결과로 진행된 비소세포 폐암 환자에 대한 hign VPP 복합화학요법은 비치료군에 비해 치료군에서 생존율을 높이는 비교적 좋은 효과가 있으므로 좋은 적응증을 가진 환자들을 선택하여 효과적인 항암치료 및 방사선 치료를 시행하여야 할 것으로 사료된다. 그러나, hign VPP 복합화학요법에 따른 효과 개선은 본 연구 결과에선 뚜렷하지 않으므로 보다 많은 증례에서 추구 연구가 필요하리라 생각된다.

  • This study was performed to determine the toxic effects of graded dose levels of SKI 2053R after repeated administration. Three groups of Sprague-Dawley rats(10M and 10F per group) were given a total of 25 i.v. injections of SKI 2053R (1.50,3.75,9.38mg/kg/day). In order to compare the toxic effects of SKI 2053R with those of cisplatin, one group of Sprague-Dawley rats (10M and 10F per group) were given a total of 25 i.v.injections of cisplatin (1.70mg/kg/day). The dosing schedule was divided into five courses of 5 consecutive days with 16-day dose-free intervals between each course. No drug-related toxicity occurred in low dose level group (1.50mg/kg/day) of SKI2053R. From the results of hematological examination, peripheral WBC counts, RBC counts and hemoglobin of high dose level group(9.38mg/kg/day)of SKI 2053R were significantly lower than those of no-treated group. Other toxicities including reduced final body weight, proteinuria and hematuria were observed in high dose level group of SKI 2053R. But, no change was detected in serum biochemical values of SKI 2053R treated groups. All of the rats in cisplatin treated group were died between 3 and 13 weeks, while rats treated with SKI2053R survived to the end except one rat of middle dose level group(3.75mg/kg/day). In histopathological examinations, rats that received cisplatin manifested severe tubular damage in kidney and hemosiderosis in spleen, but no critical pathological lesion was observed in rats of other groups. Considering the results of this study, it was concluded that non-toxic dose of SKI 2053R in this treatment schedule was estimated to be 3.75 mg/kg/day and the maximum tolerated dose was to be higher than 9.38mg/kg/day. The toxic profiles fo SKI 2053R were different from those of cisplatin, and its toxicity was considerably lower than that of cisplatin.

  • Aprepitant is a substance P/neurokinin-1 (NK1)-receptor antagonist that was approved in 2003 for prevention of CINV. In addition, updated anti-emetic guidelines that include the aprepitant regimen have been published by NCCN and ASCO. However there is scarce clinical data in Korea. The prospective study was performed to evaluate the prevention of high dose cisplatin induced nausea and vomiting in all patients who started high-dose cisplatin-based chemotherapy at our hospital. We checked the nausea severity and vomiting episodes by calling patients within 4 to 5 days after chemotherapy. The retrospective study was performed to compare the prevention of CINV in solid tumor patients who switched their anti-emesis regimen from the standard regimen to the aprepitant regimen. In aprepitant regimen, aprepitant was added to the same anti-emetic regimen used during previous cycles. We checked the nausea, vomiting grades and adverse events in electronic medical records (EMR). In prospective study, 195 patients were included in the analysis. 88.2% of patients achieved a complete response (no emesis and no rescue therapy). In retrospective study, 54 patients were reviewed. With aprepitant regimen, nausea and vomiting grades were improved in 22 patients (40.7%) and in 9 patients (16.7%), respectively. Compared with standard regimen, addition of aprepitant provided superior prevention against CINV in Korean patients receiving highly emetogenic cisplatin-based chemotherapy. Moreover, aprepitant significantly prevented CINV in patients who received the standard regimen to prevent CINV in previous chemotherapy cycles.

  • 목적 :국소적으로 진행된 자궁경부암 환자에서 저용량의 Cisplatin을 방사선민감제로 사용하여 방사선치료와 동시 치료하였을 때의 급성독성 평가와 초기 반응을 평가하기 위하여 연구를 시행하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 본 연구는 1996년 12월부터 1999년 1월까지 FIGO Stage IIB-IIIB의 진행된 자궁경부암 환자 38명을 대상으로 하였다. 16명은 자궁경부암의 크기가 4cm이상인 환자들로 방사선 치료와 저용량의 cisplatin을 매일 동시에 치료 하였으며, 나머지 환자에선 방사선 치료 단독으로 치료하였다. 방사선치료는 골반강에 외부 방사선치료로 4500 cGy(3060cGy시행이후 midline block 추가), 자궁옅조직으로 침범이 있는 경우에는 자궁옅조직으로 방사선치료 부위를 줄여 900-1000cGy 추가치료를 시행하였고, 내부치료는 Ir$^{192}$고선량 근접 치료기(micro-Selectron HDR)로 6극회의 강 내조사(point "A"에 3000 to 3500cGy, 500cGy/fx, 2회/week)를 시행하였다. 방사선치료와 저용량의 cisplatin을 동시에 사용한 군에서는 방사선치료 첫날부터 방사선치료 20일째 되는 날까지 저용량의 cisplatin 10mg을 방사선치료 30분 전에 투여하였다. 급성독성의 평가는 expanded common toxicity criteria of the NCI Clinical Trial을 이용하였다. 초기반응의 평가는 방사선치료 종료이후 최소 4주이상의 추적조사가 가능한 사람들을 대상으로 시행되었다. 결과 : 급성독성 평가는 전체 38명에서 평가 가능하였으며, 방사선치료와 저용량의 cisplatin을 병용한 군에서 16명 중 6명(37.5$\%$)에서, 방사선 단독으로 치료한 군에서는 22명중 1명(6.2$\%$)에서 3등급 이상의 백혈구감소를 보였으며, 통계학적으로 의미있는 차이를 보였다 (P=0.030). 3등급 이상의 급성 위장간 독성은 저용량의 cisplatin을 병용한 군에서만 4명이 있었으나, 2-3일의 치료 중단이후 증상이 완화되어서 치료를 계속할 수 있었으며, 치료중 5kg이상의 체중감소는 방사선치료와 저용량의 cisplatin을 병용한 군에서는 16명중 3명(18.7$\%$), 방사선 단독으로 치료한 군에서는 22명중 2명(9.1$\%$)으로 통계학적으로 의미 있는 차이를 보이지 않았다(P=0.63). 초기반응은 추적조사가 4주 이상 가능하였던 34명을 대상으로 하였으며, 저용량의 cisplatin을 병용한 군에서 14명중 11명 (78$\%$), 방사선 단독으로 치료 군에서 20명중 16명(80$\%$)으로 통계학적으로는 의미있는 차이를 보이지 않았다(P=0.126). 결론 :국소 진행된 자궁경부암에 대한 방사선치료와 저용량의 cisplatin 병용요법 치료시 3등급 이상의 백혈구감소가 방사선치료 단독으로 치료시보다 많았으나, 1주 이하의 치료중단 이후 치료를 계속 할 수 있었으며, 4등급 이상의 백혈구감소와 치료에 의한 사망은 없었다. 초기반응에 대한 평가는 저용량의 cisplatin병용 군에서 4cm 이상의 자궁경부암을 가진 환자가 많음에도 불구하고 양 군에서 비슷한 정도의 반응을 보였으므로 진행된 자궁경부암의 치료에서 저용량의 cisplatin을 방사선민감제로 사용하여 치료결과의 향상을 기대할 수 있게 되었다. 따라서 저용량의 clsplatin과 방사선치료를 병용요법하였을 때의 치료효과를 판정하기 위해서는 phase III study가 필요하다.

  • Background: Cisplatin (CDDP) is one of the most active cytotoxic agents in the treatment of cancer. We investigated the effect of selenium (Se) with high dose vitamin E (VE) administration to prevent CDDP-induced nephrotoxicity in rats. Materials and Methods: In this study, 40 female Wistar rats were randomly divided into five equal groups. The first group, which served as the control, was administered physiological saline (2.5 cc/day, 5 days) intraperitoneally (IP), while group A was administered cisplatin (6 mg/kg BW/ single dose) plus physiological saline IP. Groups B, C, D received IP five doses of Se (1.5 mg/kg BW), and a high dose of VE (1000 mg/kg BW) (Se-VE) in combination before, simultaneously, and after CDDP, respectively. The rats were sacrificed five days after CDDP administration. Plasma malondialdehide (MDA), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), reduced glutathione (GSH), catalase, urea, creatinine levels, renal histopathological changes were measured. Results: The histopathological injury score, plasma levels of MDA, urea, creatinine were found to increase in group A compared to the control (p<0.05), while plasma levels of GSH-Px, GSH and catalase decreased (p<0.05). In contrast, plasma levels of MDA decreased (p<0.05) in groups B, C, D, which were treated with Se- VE, whereas levels of GSH-Px, GSH were found to increase only for group D (p<0.05). Plasma urea, creatinine levels improved in the treatment groups compared to group A (p<0.001). Histopathological changes caused by CDDP were also significantly improved after Se-VE treatment (p<0.05). Conclusions: Oxidative stress increases with CDDP-induced nephrotoxicity in rats. Se-VE supplementation might thus play a role in the prevention of CDDP-induced nephrotoxicity in patients.

  • Background: Isolated lung perfusion(ILP) was developed as a new treatment approach to non-resectable primary or metastatic lung cancer, because of its ability to reduce systemic toxicity while delivering high-dose chemotherapeutic agents to the target organs. This research was planned to evaluate the direct toxic effect of high-dose cisplatin to the lung tissue during isolated lung perfusion. Material and Method: Fifteen mongrel dogs were divided in the perfusate for 40 minutes. The second group was composed of 5 mongrel dogs which underwent ILP with cisplatin 2.5 mg/Kg added to the perfusate for 30 minutes and 10 minutes with washing solution without cisplatin. The third group underwent the same procedure as the second group except cisplatin 5.0 mg/Kg in the perfusate. Activities of serum angiotensin converting enzyme(ACE), tumor necrosis factor-$\alpha$(TNF-$\alpha$), and concentration of serum lactate dehydrogenase(LDH) and blood urea nitrogen/creatinine (BUN/Cr) were analyzed in each groups at the time of pre-perfusion, 1 hour, 1 day, 1 week, and 2 weeks after ILP. Result: Serum ACE activities before and 1 hour, 1 day, 1 week, and 2 weeks after ILP in control group were 45.1$\pm$6.3, 44.6$\pm$9.3, 46.7$\pm$9.5, 50.8$\pm$9.1, 46.1$\pm$4.3 U/L. Those in cisplatin 2.5 and 5.0 mg/Kg groups were 49.4$\pm$12.6, 39.0$\pm$8.6, 42.3$\pm$15.9, 50.0$\pm$2.6, 53.8$\pm$8.3 and 55.5$\pm$12.3, 47.0$\pm$6.3, 45.1$\pm$6.9, 74.8$\pm$19.5, 60.2$\pm$12.0 U/L, respectively. Serum TNF-$\alpha$ activities in each group before and after ILP were 5.0$\pm$1.5 / 7.7$\pm$2.2 / 6.6$\pm$2.5 / 4.3$\pm$1.3 / 5.2$\pm$1.1(control), 8.7$\pm$1.6 / 9.9$\pm$2.2 / 7.9$\pm$1.5 / 6.3$\pm$2.2 / 7.4$\pm$2.4 (cisplatin 2.5 mg/Kg), and 6.9$\pm$0.7 / 8.9$\pm$3.4 / 7.9$\pm$4.0 / 3.3$\pm$0.9 / 5.8$\pm$1.3 pg/ml(cisplatin 5.0 mg/Kg). Mean LDH levels of each group were 225.7 / 271.3 / 328.9 / 350.8 / 255.7(control), 235.7 / 265.7 / 336.0 / 379.5 / 299.2 (cisplatin 2.5 mg/Kg), and 259.6 / 285.2 / 340.6 / 433.4 / 292.4 IU/L(cisplatin 5.0 mg/Kg). So there was no significant difference in serum ACE, TNF-$\alpha$, and LDH activity changes after ILP between the 3 groups. And, there was no significant changes in BUN/Cr in each groups, which was independent of ILP and perfused concentration of cisplatin. In addition, all dogs survived the ILP and there was no significant evidence of pulmonary vascular injury after 2 weeks of ILP with cisplatin. Conclusion: There was no harmful effect of cisplatin to the lund tissue of the mongrel dog up to 5.0 mg/Kg in perfusate. Therefore, it is perceived to be safe and effective to deliver high-dose cisplatin to the lung without pulmonary toxicity and renal damage with ILP.

  • Heptaplatin, cis-malonato [(4R,5R)-4,5-bis (amino-methyl)-2-isopropyl-1,3-dioxolane] platinum(II) (SKI-2053R, Sunpla) is a new platinum derivative with antitumor activity comparable to cisplatin on various cancer cell lines. Preclinical studies suggest that it is less nephrotoxic than cisplatin. This study was undertaken to examine the combined effect of heptaplatin and ionizing radiation on two established human squamous carcinoma cell lines (NCI-H520, SQ20B). The cytotoxic activity of heptaplatin was concentration-dependent in both cell lines. When low dose heptaplatin was combined with high dose ionizing radiation, there was an additive cytotoxic effect on NCI-H520 cells (P < 0.05), while a moderate dose of heptaplatin and a low dose of ionizing radiation had an additive cytotoxic effect on the growth of SQ20B cells (P < 0.05). FACS analysis and DAPI staining showed that their additive cytotoxic effects were correlated with the induction of apoptosis. Further studies are warranted using heptaplatin and ionizing radiation in squamous cell carcinoma as a substitute for cisplatin.
