[Clinical evaluation of antiemetics for vomiting due to cancer chemotherapy in children].

Comparative study of antiemetic effect on vomiting due to cancer chemotherapy was performed in 62 children with various malignant diseases. Twenty-one children were treated with metoclopramide, 23 children with domperidone and remaining 18 children received methylprednisolone. Each drug was administered intravenously after administration of anticancer agents, and repeated if necessary. The most effective antiemetics was methyl-prednisolone with effective rate of 89% in comparison with 51% of domperidone and 17% of metoclopromide treated group, respectively. Methyl-prednisolone may be useful for severe vomiting due to anticancer drugs. Safer and significantly better therapeutic efficacy was observed in the group treated with domperidone than that with metoclopromide.

[Experience with high-dose methotrexate therapy for malignant solid tumors].

Thirteen patients with malignant solid tumors, mainly osteogenic sarcomas, were treated by high-dose MTX therapy, 50-400 mg/kg, in a total of 72 cycles. It has been proved that this therapy was relatively safe provided careful clinical surveillance were assured. Of 8 patients with osteogenic sarcomas, 6 had no metastatic lesions on the chest X-rays before this therapy: three were alive without any evidence of disease for 18-25 months after high-dose MTX therapy. In some cases of other malignant solid tumors, particularly intracranial tumors, clinical efficacy was observed. Dose-time relationships, etc. should further be studied for more therapeutic efficacies of high-dose MTX therapy.
