difference vs adults in monitoring etoposide
peds have lower blood pressue and higher pulse than adults
difference vs adults in monitoring anthracyclines
cardiovascular toxicity may occur as long as 20 yrs after tx
Renal Fanconi's syndrome symptoms
glycosuria/proteinuria, renal tubular acidosis, and hypophosphatemia
difference vs adults in monitoring cisplatin
calculate hydration based on size. Maint fluid = 1500 mL/m2/24hr. Most protocols call for 2x maint rate to maintain urine output
difference vs adults in monitoring ifosfamide
Renal Fanconi's Syndrome. Should switch to cyclophos after 72 mg/m2
difference vs adults in calculating dose
MAY: (1) cut adult m2 dose in half (2) convert normal dose /m2 into dose/kg by assuming 1m2 child = 30 kg (3) half adult dose after conversion to mg/kg
pediatric ALL induction chemo
IT MTX q week x 2-4 wk
pred 40mg/m2/d or dex 6mg/m2/d x 28d
vincristine 1.5 mg/m2 q week
asparaginase
=/- daunorubicin
don't give daunorubicin with
dexamethasone, b/c higher risk of fungal infections
radiation in ped pt?
avoid, esp during 1st 2 yrs of life and, preferrably, 5yrs
pediatric AML chemo regimen
daunorubicin OR idarubicin + cytarabine
pediatric medulloblastoma regimen
PCV (prednisone+lomustine+vincristine) has replaced the 8-in-1 regimen. Use chemo to avoid rad or together w/rad to decrease rad dose
positive prognosis predictors for ped neuroblastoma
DNA index >1, no N-myc amplification, higher ratio VMA:HVA
treatment- neuroblastoma stage I-2A
surgical resection. If N-myc amplified, also chemo
treatment- neuroblastoma stage 2B-3
surgery, chemo, and possibly rad.
chemo= cyclophos+vincristine+carbo/ cis+etoposide
treatment- neuroblastoma stage 4
aggressive chemo, possible transplant, possible retinoic acid as biological response modifier
treatment- neuroblastoma stage 4S
surgery
blood pressure w/ Wilm's tumor
hypertension due to renin
radiation with osteosarcoma
radiation plays no role in osteosarcoma since it is unresponsive
active agents in osteosarcoma
HDMTX, alternating with cisplatin + doxorubicin
radiation with Ewing's sarcoma
tumor is very radiosensitive
Prior to initiation of chemo in ALL, what are some steps that may be necessary?
begin allopurinol or rasburicase and start hydration. May also begin urine alkalinazation.
When to use a 3 drug induction for pediatric ALL vs 4 drug?
3 drug for std risk and 4 drug for high risk. High risk = age<1 yr or > 9 yrs, WBC>50k, T-cell ALL or certian translocations
What is the 3 drug regimen for pediatric ALL?
IT MTX + vinc + asparag + pred/dex
What drug is added to make a 4 drug regimen for ped ALL?
daunorubicin on d2,8,15. Must switch to prednisone (no dex due to incr fungal infections)
Most effective regimen for pediatric AML?
daunorubicin OR idarubicin + cytarabine
Chemo regimen for rhabdomyosarcoma?
VAC (vincristine+dactinomycin+cyclophosphamide)
Goal of maintainence chemo for ALL
maintain ANC between 500-1500. Increase or decrease doses 25% to maintain this range.
Wilms treatment for Stage I & II favorable
dactinomycin + vincristine, NO RAD
Wilms treatment for Stages II - IV favorable or unfavorable
RT included, plus dactinomycin, doxorubicin, vincristine, maybe cyclophos and etoposide
Rhabdoid tumor treatment
surgery + RT
retinoblastoma treatment
RT + chemo if metastatic. Chemo= vincristine + etoposide + carboplatin
