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
|
