Busulfan systemic exposure after oral administration of extemporeanously prepared high-dose busulfan capsules.
2009
Purpose. The aim of the study was to analyze patients’ busulfan (BU) exposure after oral administration of extemporeanously prepared BU capsules prior to blood stem cell transplantation. Methods. Patients were treated with 1 mg/kg body weight BU administered orally every 6h on each of 4 consecutive days prior to blood stem cell transplantation. Each BU dose was administered in 1 gelatine capsule to be swallowed and containing the individually calculated dose of pure BU active substance. Blood samples were obtained from 6 adult patients 0, 30, 60, 90, 120, 180, 240, 300, and 360 min after the 1st, 5th, and 13th BU dose, frozen and analyzed subsequently by using a HPLC assay with UV detectio…
Loading profile of topotecan into polyvinyl alcohol microspheres (DC Bead™) over a 7-day period
2011
Purpose: DC Bead™ is successfully used for chemoembolization of various liver cancers. The purpose of this study was todetermine the loading capacity of the semi-synthetic topoisomerase-1 inhibitor topotecan into the DC Bead™ microspheres under static or agitated conditions and to assess the physicochemical stability over a period of 7 days. Methods: Commercially available topotecan hydrochloride powder (Hycamtin®) was reconstituted with water for injection to yield a nominal concentration of 1 mg/mL topotecan. Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-based microspheres (DC Bead™, 300–500 µm, 2 mL/vial) were mixed with 4 mL of the reconstituted topotecan solution. Vials were stored light protected at room …
