摘要: PURPOSEPhase I clinical and in vitro studies of gemcitabine (2',2'-difluorodeoxycytidine; dFdC) have demonstrated that the accumulation rate dFdC 5'-triphosphate (dFdCTP) mononuclear leukemia cells is saturated when plasma or extracellular levels exceed 15 to 20 mumol/L. Thus, we designed a phase study maximize dFdCTP by administering at 10 mg/m2/min, dose calculated produce steady-state mumol/L.PATIENTS AND METHODSThe treatment intensity was increased patients (n = 22) with relapsed refractory acute chronic myelogenous (CML) blast crisis prolonging infusion duration but maintaining same rate. Doses between 1,200 mg/m2 6,400 were administered weekly for 3 weeks.RESULTSThe maximum-tolerated 4,800 infused over 480 minutes. The mean level all infusions 26.5 +/- 9 mumol/L 19). accum...
