    Notes: Summary a novel approach to enhance the activity of doxorubicin is to increase the availability of cellular “chelatable” iron to participate in doxorubicin-mediated free-radical generation. To achieve this, we designed a regimen consisting of desferrioxamine (DFO, 50 mg/kg daily given as an i. v. infusion over 72 h) to increase cellular iron uptake. Thereafter, the combination of iron sorbitol citrate (ISC) and doxorubicin (as a single agent or as part of the CHOP regimen) was given. In a phase I study we investigated the toxicity of this regimen in nine patients with refractory malignant disease. Severe but reversible ocular toxicity (i. e., acute maculopathy) was observed in two patients. As these patients were the only ones who were pretreated with cisplatin, we caution against the use of DFO in cisplatin-pretreated patients. Severe phlebitis was encountered in five of nine patients. A partial remission was observed in two of four patients with refractory Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma who were treated with DFO, ISC, and doxorubicin as part of the CHOP regimen. We conclude that pretreatment with DFO and iron sorbitol citrate may be of benefit in the treatment of malignancies with doxorubicin-containing regimens, but ocular toxicity and severe phlebitis limits the use of DFO in this approach. The attachment of DFO to biocompatible polymers may be a method of overcoming the observed toxicity and warrants further study.

    Notes: Summary In 91 of 106 adult patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) enrolled in the treatment protocol ALL HOVON-5 between May 1988 and October 1991, the immunophenotype of the leukemia was determined and correlated with clinical characteristics at presentation. The immunological marker analysis was performed in ten laboratories, all members of the Dutch Study Group on Immunophenotyping of Leukemias and Lymphomas (SIHON). Undifferentiated blasts were found in four patients, 67 had B-lineage ALL, 18 had T-lineage ALL, and two had biphenotypic ALL. The age of T-lineage ALL patients was lower (mean 29.3) than that of B-lineage ALL patients (mean 35.5). Tumor mass, as expressed by leukocyte count, organomegaly, and LDH, was more pronounced in T-lineage ALL. Hemoglobin and platelet count was similar in all (sub)types. CD34 was expressed in 58% of the leukemias, but most frequently in the common B-ALL (70%). Thirteen percent of the leukemias expressed one or more markers not associated with their lineage. In this prospective study immunological data were not evaluable for 15 patients. On four of them data were not available because of dry tap, for six patients the typing was technically insufficient, and for four patients the results were unclassifiable; with one patient the marker analysis was not performed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Nach Ergebnissen früherer Untersuchungen vermindert Trimethoprim-Sulfamethoxazol bei Patienten mit schwerer Granulozytopenie die Infektionsinzidenz. Doch kommt es dabei relativ häufig zum Auftreten multiresistenter Mikroorganismen. In der vorliegenden Studie wird geprüft, ob der Zusatz von Colistin zu dem Trimethoprim-Sulfamethoxazol-Behandlungsschema das Auftreten dieser resistenten Bakterien verhindern kann. 30 nacheinander behandelte Patienten mit akuter, nicht-lymphatischer Leukämie erhielten eine Prophylaxe mit Trimethoprim-Sulfamethoxazol plus Colistin per os. Die Ergebnisse wurden mit unserer früher publizierten, kontrollierten Studie verglichen. In bezug auf Infektionsverhütung waren Trimethoprim-Sulfamethoxazol plus Colistin und Trimethoprim-Sulfamethoxazol allein gleichwertig. Die Zugabe von Colistin verminderte jedoch außerdem signifikant die Zahl der Infektionen mit gramnegativen, gegenüber Trimethoprim-Sulfamethoxazol resistenten Bakterien. Nur zwei Patienten waren mit resistenten Stämmen besiedelt, die jedoch keine Infektionen verursachten. Wir schließen daraus, daß Patienten mit akuter, nicht-lymphatischer Leukämie während der Behandlung zur Induktion einer Remission die Kombination Trimethoprim-Sulfamethoxazol plus Colistin zur Infektionsprophylaxe erhalten sollten.
    Notes: Summary In a previous study we demonstrated that trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole decreases the prevalence of infection in patients with severe granulocytopenia. However, treatment was accompanied by a relatively high incidence of multiresistant microorganisms. We therefore conducted this study to determine whether the addition of colistin to the trimethoprimsulfamethoxazole regimen prevents the emergence of these resistant bacteria. Thirty consecutive adult patients with acute non-lymphocytic leukaemia received trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole plus colistin p.o. prophylactically. The results of this study were compared with the results of our previously published controlled study. Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole plus colistin was as effective as trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole in preventing infection. However, the addition of colistin significantly reduced the acquisition of and infection by gram-negative bacilli which were resistant to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole. Only two patients were colonized with resistant strains, and no infections with these strains were observed. We have concluded that patients with acute non-lymphocytic leukaemia should receive a combination of trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole plus colistin prophylactically during remission induction treatment.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Bei zwei Patienten mit akuter Leukämie wurde während einer anhaltenden Granulozytopenie-Phase nach Zytostatikatherapie eine hepatolienale Candidose diagnostiziert. Nach Erholung der Granulozyten traten bei beiden Patienten Oberbauchbeschwerden und eine Erhöhung der alkalischen Phosphatase auf. Die Diagnose wurde aufgrund sonographisch und im CT nachgewiesener, multipler Abszesse in Leber und Milz gesichert. Die Behandlung erfolgte bei beiden Patienten mit Amphotericin B, in einem Fall mit liposomalem Amphotericin B bei kumulativen Dosen von 2,530 beziehungsweise 570 mg. Anschließend wurde für mehrere Monate mit Fluconazol oral weiterbehandelt. Die hepatolienale Candidose konnte erfolgreich behandelt werden, doch verstarben die Patienten an Rezidiven und Progression der Leukämie.
    Notes: Summary We report on two patients with acute leukemia and prolonged granulocytopenia after cytotoxic therapy in whom the diagnosis hepatosplenic candidiasis was made. Both patients developed upper abdominal discomfort with elevated alkaline phosphatase after resolution of granulocytopenia. The diagnosis was established by demonstration of multiple abscesses in liver and spleen on ultrasound and computed tomography. Both patients were initially treated with amphotericin B i.v., one of them received liposomal amphotericin B (cumulative dose of 2,530 mg and 570 mg, respectively). Thereafter, therapy was continued for months with oral fluconazole. The treatment of hepatosplenic candidiasis was successful, however, the patients died from relapse and progression of leukemia.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung In einer randomisierten multizentrischen Studie wurden 51 Patienten mit akuter Leukämie, die sich einer aggressiven Chemotherapie zur Remissionsinduktion unterzogen, mit Ciprofloxacin oder Norfloxacin, jeweils in zwei unterschiedlichen Dosierungen und in Kombination mit einem nicht resorbierbaren Antimykotikum, zur Infektionsprävention behandelt. Mit beiden Substanzen wurde eine effektive Elimination potentiell pathogener gram-negativer Bakterien undStaphylococcus aureus erreicht, während die anaerobe Darmflora nicht beeinflußt wurde. Es wurde nur eine geringe Inzidenz von Nebenwirkungen bei zufriedenstellender Patientencompliance beobachtet. Als Tagesdosis zur Infektionsprävention bei schwer granulozytopenischen Patienten sollten 1000 mg Ciprofloxacin oder 800 mg Norfloxacin verabreicht werden.
    Notes: Summary In a randomized multicenter study, ciprofloxacin and norfloxacin, each in two different dose regimens and in combination with non-absorbable antimycotics, were administered to 51 patients with acute leukaemia undergoing aggressive remission induction chemotherapy for infection prevention. Both drugs showed an effective elimination of gram-negative potential pathogens andStaphylococcus aureus not affecting the anaerobic flora of the gastrointestinal tract. A low incidence of side effects and a satisfactory patient compliance could be observed. A daily dosage of 1,000 mg ciprofloxacin or 800 mg norfloxacin is recommended for infection prevention in severely granulocytopenic patients.

    Notes: Abstract Ciprofloxacin, a new quinolone derivative, was given prophylactically (500 mg twice daily) to 15 patients with acute leukemia during remission induction treatment. The effect on the microbial flora of the alimentary tract was evaluated. A rapid elimination ofEnterobacteriaceae was observed.Bacteriodes andClostridium species were not affected. Few ciprofloxacin resistant strains were isolated but did not lead to colonization. In a randomized study 56 patients with acute leukemia received either ciprofloxacin or trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole plus colistin for prevention of infections. Six major infections occurred in 28 patients receiving ciprofloxacin, and 11 major infections in 28 patients receiving trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole plus colistin. No infections caused by Gramn-egative bacilli were seen in the ciprofloxacin group compared to 17 in the other group (p 〈0.02). Ciprofloxacin prevented colonization with resistant Gram-negative bacilli while 12 resistant colonizing strains were isolated from 10 patients receiving trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (p〈0.01). Ciprofloxacin was better tolerated than trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole+colistin; fewer side effects occurred.
