Predictive factors associated with pemetrexed acute toxicity.

Purpose: Pemetrexed has shown efficacy as monotherapy or in combination with platinum salts in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer and mesothelioma. However, severe hematological toxicities induced by pemetrexed-based chemotherapy have been observed. Some studies have suggested that drug interactions may be associated with pemetrexed toxicity.

Elimination of three doses of gentamicin over three consecutive days using a polyacrylonitrile-derived filter: An in vitro assessment.

Introduction: Adsorption of gentamicin in a polyacrylonitrile filter was previously evidenced in a session lasting 6 h using the NeckEpur model. We extended the study over three consecutive days to mimic the 72-h life span of a filter.

Methods: Prismaflex monitor and ST150 filter were used in the continuous diafiltration (CDF) mode at a 2.
