title: [Hematological toxicity of some combined chemotherapy schemes involving aranoza].
abstract: Hematological toxicity of four combined chemotherapy schemes--TAr, TPAr, EPAr, and IPAr--involving aranose (Ar), cisplatin (P), etoposide (E), irinotecan (I), and topotecan (T) in therapeutic regimes has been studied on healthy mice in comparison to the treatment with Ar in a high therapeutic dose. It is established that Ar alone induces early leucopenia, mostly as a result of lymphocytopenia followed by the absolute and relative neutrophilia; the TAr treatment leads to a moderate neutropenia; whereas the ternary combinations cause a moderate lymphocytopenia. A relatively high hematological toxicity among the ternary combinations was observed for TPAr. The total number of erythrocytes and thrombocytes in the peripheral blood of mice under the action of Ar and all combinations remains on the control level. The inclusion of Ar into the indicated schemes neither modifies the spectrum of hematological toxicity nor increases its level. The observed changes in the peripheral blood were reversible and were not accompanied by any impairment in the state of mice. The obtained results allow the combinations involving P, E, I, T, and Ar to be considered as promising for further investigation.
