Description:Background/Aim: Platinum-based chemotherapy often fails due to its severe adverse effects. The aim of this study was to examinethe adverse effects profile and efficacy of dicycloplatin and compare them to those of cisplatin and carboplatin. Materialsand Methods: Cystoscopy surveillance of the first American cancer patient treated with dicycloplatin was performed quarterly.In vitro and in vivo studies were conducted using immunoblotting and flow cytometry to assess immune status of spleen andbone marrow of mice treated with dicycloplatin, cisplatin and carboplatin. Results: The American patient did not suffer clinicallysignificant myelosuppression; dicycloplatin has sustained remission in this patient to date. Experimental studies showed thatdicycloplatin is less toxic to bone marrow and spleen of mice than cisplatin and carboplatin. Conclusion: Dicycloplatin isa promising drug in cancer chemotherapy with less aggressive side-effects than those typically associated with cisplatin andcarboplatin. This is an important therapeutic advantage in cancer chemotherapy. Clinical investigation of dicycloplatin asan alternative to cisplatin or carboplatin is warranted. [Description provided by NIOSH]
