Abstract

We compared gastrointestinal toxicity of single vs. fractionated total body irradiation (TBI) administered at dose rates ranging from 0.021 to 0.75 Gy/min in a canine model of marrow transplantation. Dogs were given otherwise marrow-lethal single or fractionated TBI from dual 60Co sources at total doses ranging from 8-18 Gy and delivered at dose rates of 0.021, 0.05, 0.10, 0.20, 0.40, and 0.75 Gy/min, respectively. They were protected from marrow death by infusion of previously stored autologous marrow cells and they were given intensive supportive care posttransplant. The study endpoint was 10-day mortality from gastrointestinal toxicity. Logistic regression analyses were used to jointly evaluate the effects of dose rate, total dose, and delivery regimen on toxicity. With increasing dose rates, mortality increased for either mode of delivery of TBI. With dose rates through 0.10 Gy/min, mortality among dogs given single vs. fractionated TBI appeared comparable. Beginning at 0.20 Gy/min, fractionation appeared protective for the gastrointestinal tract. Results in dogs given TBI at 0.40 and 0.75 Gy/min, respectively, were comparable, and dose fractionation permitted the administration of considerably higher total doses of TBI tha...Continue Reading

Allogenic & Autologous Therapies

Allogenic therapies are generated in large batches from unrelated donor tissues such as bone marrow. In contrast, autologous therapies are manufactures as a single lot from the patient being treated. Here is the latest research on allogenic and autologous therapies.
