January 27th, 2007. A Phase I and Pharmacokinetic Study of Pemetrexed Plus Irinotecan in Patients with Advanced Solid Malignancies
Conclusions: The pemetrexed/irinotecan regimen is well tolerated in patients with advanced solid malignancies at clinically relevant single-agent doses. The recommended dose level of pemetrexed/irinotecan for subsequent disease-directed evaluations involving lightly pretreated patients is 500/350 mg/m2 every 3 weeks with vitamin supplementation.
December 6th, 2006. Efficacy and safety of first- or second-line irinotecan, cisplatin, and mitomycin in mesothelioma
Conclusions: IPM appeared to have a reasonable response rate with an acceptable toxicity profile in the first- and second-line treatment of MPM.
February 8th, 2006. Epidemiologic surveillance for primary prevention of malignant mesothelioma: the Italian experience
Conclusions: Despite some ReNam's limitations, identification of MM cases and analysis of modality of exposure, with standardized criteria, are a fundamental tool for primary prevention of asbestos related diseases.
February 16th, 2005. Irinotecan for malignant mesothelioma A phase II trial by the Cancer and Leukemia Group B
Conclusion: Single-agent irinotecan in this dose and schedule has considerable toxicity in patients with malignant mesothelioma and has no anti-tumor activity. The relatively long median survival seen in this study principally reflects the prognostic features of the accrued patients.
