Services than in the USA, low socioeconomic status was not associated with increased ACSC hospitalization once age and gender were controlled. This finding is in contrast to studies previously conducted in various areas of the United States [5-9]. When access is facilitated, characteristics of patients other than socioeconomic, and variations in practice patterns characteristics of providers and of processes of care ; seem to be more important in influencing the effectiveness of primary care, as measured by hospitalization for ambulatory care-sensitive conditions, although it is possible that some other unmeasured ; characteristics of the two health systems could have contributed to the findings. This study showed that children who were either under 2 years of age or female were more likely to have been admitted with ambulatory care-sensitive conditions than older children or males. Other studies have demonstrated that age and gender may influence the relationships among such variables as the use of primary care, type of diagnosis and hospitalization [44 49]. Younger children also were more likely to come to the hospital without a referral even after having visited a primary care doctor, and admitting doctors may be more prone to hospitalize when the individual is an infant or young toddler. Since health services' utilization and hospitalization are generally higher among male than female children [44, 50-51], the.

Only two SPC events were reported in this weeks UK PDJ, the grant of Health Research Inc's SPC for recombinant canarypox viruses and vaccines containing them and the entry into force of Yakult Honsha's SPC for irinotecan. This came into force in the UK and several other European states on July 13th. The Strategic Drugs database SDdb ; notes that Aventis holds the European rights to irinotecan, whilst Yakult outlicensed the US rights to Pfizer formerly Pharmacia ; . SDdb also notes that, irinotecan has been losing some market share to Sanoficompetitor product Synthelabo's Eloxatin. This is interesting in the light of the proposed merger of SanofiSynthelabo with Aventis and with Yakult having development and marketing rights for eloxatin in Japan. Several patent extensions were reported in the Japanese Gazette for July, of which five were for Agrochemicals four from Bayer and one from Sankyo ; . Aventis were the only non-Japanese company this month in the Pharmaceutical section, gaining added protection for their docetaxel hydrate product used to treat esophageal cancer. Sales of docetaxel are predicted by SDdb analysts to grow to around .7 billion in 2007 despite competition from generic paclitaxel, although this could slow growth. Sumitomo Pharmaceuticals gained around 3.5 years extension for one of their Japanese meropenem trihydrate patents, extending the patent protection to the end of 2011. AstraZeneca have a worldwide license for meropenem, which is used to treat bacterial meningitis and is currently in Phase III trials for other infections, including hospital and community acquired pneumonia, neutropenia and cystic fibrosis-related infections. Daiichi Suntory Pharma received extensions of more than 3 years to two patents for faropenem sodium, including the product patent, for treatment of numerous infectious diseases in children. Kissei Pharmaceuticals, received a full five year extension to their product patent for mitiglinide calcium hydrate. Mitiglinide, a non-sulfonylurea hypoglycemic agent, was approved in January 2004 for treatment of type 2 diabetes and was launched by Kissei in May 2004. According to the Investigational Drugs database IDdb ; , this is the first market release of the drug, which was estimated by analysts to reach YEN 18 billion per annum. This was revised upwards in April 2004, based on data from the Chuikyo to YEN 26.6 billion per annum. Aventis this week received a second rejection from the USPTO on its application for the reissue of US5389618, relating to Lovenox enoxaparin sodium ; . Aventis remains committed to continuing with the reissue process, even though this rejection is characterized as a "final rejection" by the USPTO. Aventis has the option of continuing the reissue process or filing an appeal. By suing to enforce the `618 patent which expires on February 2012 ; , Aventis initiated an automatic stay prohibiting the FDA from approving Amphastar Pharma's and Teva Pharma's ANDAs application on generic versions of Lovenox for 30 months, or until an earlier court decision in an infringement lawsuit filed in August 2003 against Amphastar and Teva is adverse to Aventis. This week saw the publication of research lead by Dr Friedrich Grimminger of the University of Geissen. This research involved the investigation of the effects of sildenafil on pulmonary hypertension caused by alveolar hypoxia. 14 mountaineers were used to compare the effects of sildenafil at sea level and at Mount Everest base camp. This research concluded that sildenafil did reduce hypoxic pulmonary hypertension. Using the DOLPHIN database Database Of alL Pharmaceutical INventions ; we can see that Dr Grimminger is named on WO03051346 entitled "Novel use of selective PDE5 inhibitors", assigned to Altana Pharma. Our analysts note the University of Geissen as an affiliate and indexed this application as a new use case for sildenafil, listing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and respiratory disease as indications. continued on inside back page and isdn.
Bevacizumab with irinotecan
Chemotherapy, " said Prof. Cunningham. "Cetuximab gives doctors a powerful new tool and gives patients who have failed traditional chemotherapy new hope." The BOND study was designed to compare cetuximab alone as monotherapy and in combination with irinotecan in 329 patients with metastatic colorectal cancer expressing the epidermal growth factor receptor EGFR ; who had ceased to respond to chemotherapy. Two thirds of the patients were given cetuximab and irinotecan while one third received only cetuximab. Data from the BOND study indicate that cetuximab given alone shows an overall response rate of 11 percent. When given in combination with irinotecan, a statistically significant improvement in efficacy is observed, compared with cetuximab alone, with an overall response rate of 22, 9 percent. The study demonstrates that a combination of cetuximab and irinotecan is beneficial even when patients have ceased to respond to irinotecan. "We are delighted with the strength of the response and time-to-disease-progression data on cetuximab, " said Merck KGaA CEO Bernhard Scheuble. "We believe the data promise new hope for patients suffering from metastatic colorectal cancer and other EGFR-expressing tumors." Merck KGaA plans to submit an application for approval of cetuximab to the European Agency for the Evaluation of Medicinal Products EMEA ; and to authorities in Switzerland this summer. If successful, Merck KGaA could bring the cancer drug to market in Switzerland as soon as late 2003 and across the European Union in 2004. Merck licensed the right to market cetuximab outside of the U.S. and Canada and the co-exclusive right to market cetuximab in Japan from ImClone Systems Incorporated of New York in 1998.

As discussed, preclinical studies have shown that anti-VEGF and anti-EGFR treatments are additive in preclinical tumor xenograft models. Encouraging antitumor activity has also been observed in clinical trials with combined VEGF and EGFR blockade. Many of these studies have focused on combining bevacizumab with anti-EGFR agents due to the fact that bevacizumab has proven activity in many tumor types summarized in Table 2 ; . In metastatic colorectal cancer for which both bevacizumab and cetuximab are approved for use, a randomized phase II trial BOND II ; examined the efficacy and safety of concurrent administration of bevacizumab plus cetuximab, with and without irinotecan, in irinotecan-refractory disease 174 ; . Adding bevacizumab to cetuximab or cetuximab irinotecan improved outcomes compared with historical data for these agents. A previous study BOND I ; evaluating treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer with cetuximab irinotecan reported a 23% response rate and time to progression of 4 months 88 ; . In BOND II, Saltz et al. 174 ; showed that the addition of bevacizumab to the treatment regimen produced a 37% response rate with median time to progression of 7.9 months. The response rate when patients were treated with cetuximab alone was 11% and time to progression was 1.5 months 88 ; . The addition of bevacizumab to cetuximab produced a partial response in 20% of patients and increased median time to progression to 5.6 months 174 ; . It is important to note that f60% of patients randomized into the BOND I study had received previous treatment with oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy. More patients 89% ; in the BOND II study had received prior treatment with oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy, indicating that the BOND II study population was more refractory. Toxicities observed were as predicted, with no indication of synergistic toxicity. Antibody-related grade 3 toxicities were rash, paronychial cracking, allergic reaction, and headache first.

Consecutive waveforms of good quality were obtained Ng and Ho, 2002 ; . As there were no differences in uterine PI and RI between the left and the right sides, the averaged uterine PI and RI were given. The ultrasound machine was switched to the 3D mode with power Doppler. The setting condition for this study was as follows: frequency mid; dynamic set 2; balance G 140; smooth 5 ensemble 12; line density 7; power Doppler map 5. The setting condition for the sub-power Doppler mode was as follows: gain 6.0; balance 140; quality normal; wall motion filter low 1; velocity range 0.9 kHz. The resulting truncated sector covering the endometrial cavity in a longitudinal plane of the uterus was adjusted and moved and the sweep angle was set to 90 to ensure that a complete uterine volume encompassing the entire subendometrium was obtained. The patient and the 3D transvaginal probe remained as still as possible during the volume acquisition. A 3D dataset was then acquired using the medium speed sweep mode. The resulting multi-planar display was examined to ensure that the area of interest was captured in its entirety. If the volume measurement was completed without a power Doppler artefact, the dataset was stored for later analysis by E.H.Y.N. The built-in VOCAL Virtual Organ Computer-Aided Analysis ; Imaging Program for the 3D power Doppler histogram analysis was used in the analysis, along with computer algorithms, to measure the endometrial volume and indices of blood flow within the endometrium. Vascularization index VI ; , which measures the ratio of the number of colour voxels to the total number of voxels, is thought to represent the presence of blood vessels vascularity ; in the endometrium and is expressed as a percentage % ; of the endometrial volume. Flow index FI ; , the mean power Doppler signal intensity inside the endometrium, is thought to express the average intensity of flow. Vascularization flow index VFI ; is a combination of vascularity and flow intensity Pairleitner et al., 1999 ; . During the analysis and calculation, the manual mode of the VOCAL Contour Editor was used to cover the whole 3D volume of the endometrium with a 15 rotation step. Hence, 12 contour planes were analysed for the endometrium of each patient to cover 180. Following the assessment of the endometrium itself, the subendometrium was examined through the application of `shell-imaging', which allows the user to generate a variable contour that parallels the originally defined surface contour. In the present study, the subendometrial region was considered to be within 1 mm of the originally defined myometrialendometrial contour Ng et al., 2004 ; . VI, FI and VFI of the subendometrial region were obtained accordingly. Patients were advised to have two embryos replaced into the uterine cavity 48 h after the retrieval but replacing three embryos was allowed. Excess good quality embryos were frozen. All fresh embryos were cryopreserved if serum E2 on the day of hCG injection was 20000 pmol l in order to reduce the risks of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome OHSS ; . Luteal phase was supported by two doses of HCG or vaginal progesterone Cyclogest; Cox Pharmaceuticals, Barnstaple, UK ; . A urine pregnancy test was done 16 days after embryo transfer. If it was positive, ultrasound examination was performed 1014 days later to confirm intrauterine pregnancy and to determine the number of gestational sacs present. Only clinical pregnancies defined by the presence of one or more gestational sacs or the histological confirmation of gestational product in miscarriages were considered. Ongoing pregnancies were those pregnancies beyond 1012 weeks of gestation, at which stage the patients were referred for antenatal care. Implantation rate was the proportion of embryos transferred resulting in an intrauterine gestational sac. The intra-observer reliability was expressed as the mean intra-class correlation coefficient ICC ; with 95% confidence interval CI ; . The mean ICC 95% CI ; was 0.970 0.920, 0.989 ; for endometrial thickness, 0.973 0.912, 0.992 ; for PI and 0.951 0.838, 0.985 ; for RI. The.

"I always feel that a staff visit is just as useful, if not more so, than visiting with a congressman, " she said. "It's a direct line to the congressman." It's also important to establish and maintain relationships with congressional representatives, she said. "It's unlikely that everything will get done after one visit, so follow up is very important, " she said.

Millikan, C. H., Siekert, R. G., and Whisnant, J. P.: Anticoagulant Therapy in Cerebral Vascular Disease-Current Status. J.A.M.A. 166: 587 Feb. 8 ; , 1958. In the therapy of strokes, attention should be directed to several facets: prevention of the first attack, prevention of extension after an attack, and prevention of multiple attacks. In solving these problems, anticoagulants heparin, ethyl biscoumacetate, and bishydroxycoumarin ; were used in 317 patients with manifestations of cerebral vascular disease. Indications for the selection of patients for therapy were intermittent insufficiency in the vertebral-basilar system, intermittent insufficiency in the carotid system, thrombosis in the vertebral-basilar system with infarction, and actively advancing occlusion of the carotid system. A fifth indication suggested by others than the authors is multiple thromboembolic episodes. In the total of 317 patients, 179 were treated for the syndromes of intermittent insufficiency and 172 of these experienced cessation of the attacks. Only 9 deaths occurred in 107 treated patients with thrombosis in the vertebral-basilar system and infarction. Of 31 treated patients with actively advancing occlusion of the carotid system, 29 had no progression .of neurologic deficits. A definite clinical impression exists that anticoagulant therapy is of benefit in these cases. However, evidence is tenuous that anticoagulants can cause dissolution of a thrombus once established and there is no evidence that anticoagulants have any beneficial action on infareted brain.

| Mechanism of action and facilitated by chemical manipulations that have amplified their solubility, camptothecins have advanced to the forefront of several areas of therapeutic and developmental chemotherapy.13 Especially, two water-soluble camptothecin analogs are recently approved by the Food and Drug Administration for clinical application: topotecan as a second-line therapy for ovarian cancer or small-cell lung cancer, and irinotecan for the treatment of colorectal carcinoma refractory to 5-fluorouracil or as initial therapy in combination with 5-flurouracil for the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer. 12 The clinical potentials of camptothecin analogs in the treatment of AML were also investigated. In 1996, Rowinsky et al14 reported that topotecan administered as a single agent had a significant antileukemic activity in patients with AML. Recently, topotecan is investigated as a salvage and front-line therapy for AML in combination with etoposide, cytarabine, or cyclophosphamide and some efficacious results were obtained.15-17 Further development of novel topo I inhibitors was spurred by the spectrum of potencies of this class of drugs in terms of enzyme inhibition, antiproliferative activity, toxicities, and pharmaceutical properties. For instance, DX-8951f, a water-soluble hexacyclic camptothecin derivative with more potent topo I-inhibiting action, has been shown to possess better antileukemic activity in SCID mice with AML.18 Potent preclinical antileukemic activity is also observed for OSI-211, a low-clearance, unilamellar liposomal formulation of a water-soluble camptothecin analog lurtotecan.19 In the present study, we report that very low concentration nanomolar, nM ; of NSC606985, a rarely studied water-soluble camptothecin ester derivative Figure 1A ; , 20 can induce leukemic cell apoptosis by proteolytic activation of protein kinase C PKC ; . Using this system, the relationship among PKC, mitochondrial transmembrane potentials m ; and caspase-3 activation in apoptosis regulation is also evaluated and isdn.
