Five healthy young adult dogs were given recombinant canine granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rcG-CSF) at a dosage of 5 micrograms/kg/day subcutaneously for 4 weeks to evaluate the effect on complete blood cell counts. The mean neutrophil counts +/- standard deviation (SD) increased significantly (P less than 0.01) from 6,537/microliters +/- 1,726 (range, 4,950-9,512/microliters) to 26,330/microliters +/- 7,066 (range, 15,368-35,785/microliters) within 24 hours after the first injection of rcG-CSF. Mean monocyte counts +/- SD were significantly increased (P less than 0.05) from baseline values of 751/microliters +/- 168 (range, 444-891/microliters) to 2,514/microliters +/- 878 (range, 1,740-3,752/microliters) on day 5 of rcG-CSF administration. Mean neutrophil and monocyte counts (+/- SD) continued to increase reaching a maximum of 72,125/microliters +/- 15,073 (range, 50,915-96,278/microliters) and 3,972/microliters +/- 2,621 (range, 685-8,030/microliters), respectively by day 19. These increased neutrophil and monocyte counts were maintained until the administration of rcG-CSF was stopped. Blood counts returned to normal within 5 days after discontinuing the rcG-CSF. One week after discontinuing treatment, rcG-CSF was started again at 5 micrograms/kg/day subcutaneously. Within 48 hours following administration of rcG-CSF, mean neutrophil counts +/- SD increased from 5,860/microliters +/- 1,819 (range, 3,720-8,650/microliters) to 57,444/microliters +/- 8,173 (range, 43,983-68,278/microliters). Myeloid:erythroid ratios increased from a mean of 1.63:1 on day 1 prior to administration of rcG-CSF to 3.3:1 on day 10 in three dogs for which bone marrow samples were evaluated. Recombinant canine G-CSF did not cause clinically significant toxicosis in any of the dogs.  相似文献

In dogs injected intravenously with 400mg/m(2) cyclophosphamide (CPA), the peripheral neutrophil count decreased to less than 1000 cells/μL in 5-9 days. Treatment with purified recombinant canine granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rcG-CSF), produced by brevibacillus expression system, at the nadir of the granulocyte count accelerated recovery from the CPA-induced neutropenia by 1-3 days. Therapeutic administration of rcG-CSF at doses of 2.5-10 μg/kg did not show any significant difference on the severity of neutropenia (the period that granulocyte counts were less than 2000 cells/μL). Administration of 2.5 μg/kg rcG-CSF 3 times per day 2-4 days or 3-5 days after CPA treatment not only accelerated recovery but also decreased the severity of neutropenia. No clinical signs of the rcG-CSF were observed. These results showed that the rcG-CSF is effective for treatment of neutropenia in dogs.  相似文献

Ten dogs were given mitoxantrone at a dose of 5 mg/m2 body surface area intravenously. Recombinant canine granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rcG-CSF) was administered subcutaneously daily for 20 days after an infusion of mitoxantrone in five of these dogs to determine the effect of the hematopoietic growth factor on the duration and severity of myelosuppression. The median neutrophil counts dropped below normal (less than 3,000/uL) for 2 days in the dogs that received rcG-CSF, and for 5 days in the dogs that received only mitoxantrone. Four of five dogs not treated with rcG-CSF and none of those receiving rcG-CSF developed serious neutropenia (less than 1,500/uL). The neutrophil counts were significantly (P less than 0.05) higher in the rcG-CSF treated dogs at all time points except before the administration of the colony-stimulating factor, and the sixth day after the mitoxantrone was administered. These findings demonstrate that rcG-CSF is capable of reducing the duration and severity of mitoxantrone-induced myelosuppression.  相似文献

Fifteen dogs were given doxorubicin, IV, at a dosage of 30 mg/m2 of body surface. A commercially available biological extract of Serratia marcescens (BESM) was administered SC to 9 of these dogs (0.04 mg/kg of body weight every third day, n = 2; 0.08 mg/kg every other day, n = 2; and 0.08 mg/kg daily, n = 5), beginning the day after administration of doxorubicin, in an attempt to find an optimal dosage and schedule of administration of BESM to reduce the duration and severity of chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression. Nine additional dogs were randomized into 3 groups of 3 dogs to receive 1 of the following dosages of BESM SC: 0.08, 0.16, and 0.32 mg/kg. Serum was harvested immediately prior to treatment and at 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours from this latter group of dogs for subsequent analysis of canine granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) by enzyme immunoassay. Increasing the dosage and schedule of administration of BESM reduced the duration and severity of doxorubicin-induced myelosuppression. Neutrophil counts of the group of dogs given BESM daily at a dosage of 0.08 mg/kg and the controls were evaluated statistically. The neutrophil count increased significantly (P < 0.05) above pretreatment values in BESM-treated dogs after day 7. Median neutrophil counts of the BESM-treated dogs were never significantly lower than pretreatment values, whereas the median counts of the dogs treated with doxorubicin alone were significantly below normal for 6 days (days 7-12).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Recombinant canine granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rcG-CSF) was administered to clinically normal dogs, cyclic-hematopoietic dogs, and dogs undergoing autologous bone marrow transplantation, to determine whether rcG-CSF could be used to stimulate WBC production and function in normal and neutropenic dogs. To the normal dogs, rcG-CSF was administered by SC injection at rates of 1 microgram/kg of body weight, q 12 h; 2 micrograms/kg, q 12 h; or 5 micrograms/kg, q 12 h. A significant dose-dependent increase in the WBC count resulted from the stimulation of bone marrow progenitor cells. The increased WBC count was characterized by mature neutrophilia and monocytosis. Neutrophil myeloperoxidase and phagocytic activity were normal in rcG-CSF-treated normal dogs, demonstrating the production of normal functional neutrophils in response to rcG-CSF treatment. Recombinant canine G-CSF prevented neutropenia and associated clinical signs but did not completely eliminate the cycling of neutrophils in cyclic-hematopoietic dogs when it was administered at rates of 1 microgram/kg, q 12 h, and 2.5 micrograms/kg, q 12 h. The time to bone marrow reconstitution was not decreased in dogs treated with rcG-CSF at a rate of 2.5 micrograms/kg, q 12 h, for 13 days following autologous bone marrow transplantation. On the basis of our findings, we suggest that treatment with rcG-CSF is an effective way to stimulate myelopoiesis in dogs, but that the dose of rcG-CSF required to stimulate WBC production will vary depending on the cause of neutropenia. Recombinant canine G-CSF should be useful in stimulating production and maintaining function of WBC for treatment of clinical diseases seen commonly in veterinary practice.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Preclinical studies of peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) transplantation conducted in a well-established canine hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) model have been successfully translated to human patients over the past 5 decades. OBJECTIVE: We retrospectively investigated the safety and feasibility of PBMC apheresis in the canine model of HCT by analyzing apheresis parameters, cell yields, and the impacts of donor-related and apheresis-related variables on collection yields and donor stability. ANIMALS: One hundred and twenty dogs that underwent PBMC aphereses were evaluated. METHODS: Aphereses were performed with a COBE Spectra blood separator and a central dual-lumen catheter, with or without recombinant canine granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rcG-CSF) stem cell mobilization. RESULTS: Aphereses from dogs not given rcG-CSF yielded an average volume of 280 +/- 42 mL containing an average of 15,086 +/- 9,834 leukocytes/mL. Aphereses from dogs given rcG-CSF yielded an average volume of 261 +/- 55 mL containing an average of 39,711 +/- 24,488 leukocytes/mL. Higher pre-apheresis white blood cell (WBC) counts correlated with higher apheresis WBC yields (R=0.50, P<.0001). The correlations of collection time, inlet volume, and collection flow rate on WBC yields were statistically significant but only weak to moderate in magnitude (R=0.34, P=.0001; R=0.38, P=.0006; R=0.26, P=.002, respectively) as were the correlations of collection time and inlet volume on collection volumes (R=0.30, P=.002; R=0.42, P<.0001, respectively). All dogs recovered promptly after PBMC aphereses and catheter removal, without complications. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE: These data may be useful for translating PBMC apheresis technology to the field of veterinary oncology for the treatment of dogs with hematologic malignancies.  相似文献

Seven clinically healthy dairy cows were each given 2.5 gphenylbutazone (approximately 5 mg/kg body weight) by oral administration twice daily for 8 days. The concentrations of phenylbutazone in plasma and milk and several blood parameters were studied. The minium plasma concentration during steady state was 100.4 ± 7.3 μg/ml. During the same period the milk concentration never exceeded 1% of the plasma concentration. The elimination half-life in plasma was 38.6 ± 3.7 h. Five days after administration had been discontinued, the milk concentration was 0.05 ± 0.01 μg/ml. All seven cows were clinically healthy throughout the experiment. The most pronounced side-effect of the blood parameters studied was a decreased concentration of leucocytes to about two-thirds of the control value. This might have a pronounced influence on the effectiveness of the immune system. There was also a significant decrease in total bilirubin indicating a decrease in the breakdown of erythrocytes.  相似文献

Glomerulonephritis has been associated with exogenous glucocorticoid administration and spontaneous hyperadrenocorticism in the dog. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of long-term glucocorticoid therapy on urine protein:creatinine ratios (UP/Cs) and renal morphology. Nine young-adult male dogs were determined to be healthy and have normal renal function as assessed by physical examination, CBC, serum biochemistry analysis, Knott's test for Dirofilaria immitis , urinaly-sis, urine culture, urine protein electrophoresis, endogenous creatinine clearance, 24-hour urinary protein excretion, and UP/C. Prednisone was administered to each dog at a dosage of 2.2 mg/kg PO bid for 42 days. Urinalysis and UP/C were performed on days 0, 7, 14, 21, 28, and 42 of treatment. Mean UP/C on day 0 was 0.29 ± 0.10. Mean UP/C increased progressively to a maximum of 1.27 ± 1.02 on day 28. Mean UP/C on day 42 decreased slightly (0.92 ± 0.56) but remained significantly increased above baseline.
The most consistent renal light microscopic finding on necropsy examination was generalized hypercellular glomerular tufts, suggestive of mesangial cell proliferation. Four dogs also had occasional adhesions of glomerular tufts to Bowman's capsule, accompanied by thickening of the capsule. Direct immunofluorescence for immunoglobulin deposition was negative in all dogs. Electron microscopy, evaluated in 7 dogs, was characterized by occasional mild segmental thickening of basement membranes, fusion of visceral cell foot processes, and glomerular adhesions. The results of this study indicate that long-term administration of glucocorticoids results in significant proteinuria and glomerular changes in the dog.  相似文献

The pharmacokinetic properties of norfloxacin were determined in healthy pigs after single intramuscular (i.m.) and intravenous (i.v.) dosage of 8 mg/kg body weight After i.m. and i.v. administration, the plasma concentration-time graph was characteristic of a two-compartment open model. After single i.m. administration, norfloxacin was absorbed rapidly, with a t max of 1.46 ± 0.06 h. The elimination half-life ( t 1/2β) and the mean residence time of norfloxacin in plasma were 4.99 ± 0.28 and 6.05 ± 0.22 h, respectively, after i.m. administration and 3.65 ± 0.16 and 3.34 ± 0.16 h, respectively, after i.v. administration. Intramuscular bioavailability was found to be 53.7 ± 4.4%. Plasma concentrations greater than 0.2 μg/mL were achieved at 20 min and persisted up to 8 h post-administration. Maximal plasma concentration was 1.11 ± 0.03 μg/mL. Statistically significant differences between the two routes of administration were found for the half-lives of both distribution and elimination phases ( t 1/2α, t 1/2β) and apparent volume of distribution (Vd(area)). In pigs, norfloxacin was mainly converted to desethylenenorfloxacln and oxonorfloxacin. Considerable tissue concentrations of norfloxacin, desethylenenorfloxacin, and oxonorfloxacin were found when norfloxacin was administered intramuscularly (8 mg/kg on 4 consecutive days). The concentration of the parent fluoroquinolone in liver and kidney ranged between 0.015 and 0.017 μg/g on day 12 after the end of dosing.  相似文献

The plasma pharmacokinetics, lung tissue to plasma concentration ratios, and depletion profiles in edible tissue (liver, muscle, kidney, fat and injection site) for a single subcutaneous dose of a novel macrolide antibiotic, CP-163505 (20-[3-dimethylaminopropyl(L-alanyl)amino]-20-deoxo-repromicin), were investigated in crossbred beef cattle. Mean peak plasma concentration of 2.5 ± 0.4 μg/mL, occurring at 0.5 h, was found for CP-163505 following a 5 mg/kg dose ( n  = 5). The pharmacokinetic profile consisted of a distribution phase, followed by an extended terminal elimination phase (t1/2 of 19 h). The disposition of CP-163505 was characterized by distribution from the plasma into the tissue resulting in lung to plasma ratios of 103 and 87 at 72 h following a single 5 or 10 mg/kg dose, respectively. The depletion of CP-163505 from edible tissues was determined following administration of tritiated CP-163505 at a dose of 10 mg/kg. On day 42, the liver contained the highest mean concentration of total tritium residues, 5.9 ± 3.4 μg/g. CP-163505 was determined to be a significant component of the total residues in liver with 72% on day 3 and 50% on day 42. Three metabolites of CP-163505 were identified by liquid chromatography with mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) in liver samples: loss of alanine, formation of an hydroxyl derivative, and sulfate addition to the lactone ring.  相似文献

Pharmacokinetics of cefoperazone in horses   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
The pharmacokinetics and bioavailabilty of cefoperazone (CPZ) were studied following intravenous (IV) and intramuscular (IM) administration of single doses (30 mg/kg) to horses. Concentrations in serum, urine and synovial fluid samples were measured following IV administration. CPZ concentrations in serum, synovial fluid and spongy bone samples were measured following IM administration. After IV administration a rapid distribution phase ( t 1/2(α):4.22 ± 2.73 min) was followed by a slower elimination phase ( t 1/2(β) 0.77 ± 0.19 h). The apparent volume of distribution was 0.68 ± 0.10 L/kg. Mean synovial fluid peak concentration was 5.76 ± 0.74 μg/mL. After IM administration a bioavailability of 42.00±5.33% was obtained. Half-life of absorption was 2.51 ± 0.72 min and t 1/2(β) was 1.52±0.15 h. The mean synovial fluid and spongy bone peak concentrations at 2 h after IM administration were 2.91±0.85 μg/mL and 5.56±0.70 μg/mL, respectively.  相似文献

The pharmacokinetics of marbofloxacin was studied in eight healthy female Beagle dogs before and after moderate renal impairment was induced experimentally. A single intravenous (i.v.) administration and repeated administration for 8 days (2 mg/kg, once-a-day) of marbofloxacin were studied. Renal impairment was induced by a right kidney nephrectomy and electrocoagulation of the left kidney. An increase ( P  < 0.001) in the plasma concentrations of urea (from 3.8 ± 0.7 to 9.8 ± 2.1 mmol/L) and creatinine (from 78.8 ± 3.4 to 145.8 ± 22.3 μmol/L), and a significant decrease (2.9 ± 0.3 vs 1.5 ± 0.2 mL/kg/min) ( P  < 0.001) in glomerular filtration rate were observed in the renal-impaired dogs. The clearance of marbofloxacin was slightly decreased after the induction of renal failure (1.6 ± 0.2 to 1.4 ± 0.1 mL/kg/min) ( P  < 0.05), but no significant variation of volume of distribution at steady state ( V ss) and mean residence time ( MRT ) was observed after intravenous administration of marbofloxacin ( P > 0.05). Following oral administration of marbofloxacin, an increase in total area under the concentration time curve ( AUC ) was observed after renal failure (from 10372 ± 1710 to 11459 ± 1119 mg.min/L) ( P  < 0.05), but indices of accumulation were not modified. An increase ( P  < 0.01) in the AUC of N-oxide-marbofloxacin was observed after surgery. In conclusion, renal impairment has no biologically relevant influence on marbofloxacin disposition and there is no need for dosage adjustment of marbofloxacin in dogs with mild renal impairment.  相似文献

The hematologic toxicity of doxorubicin, 30 mg/m2 body surface area (BSA) every 21 days to a cumulative dose of 300 mg/m2, was evaluated in six cats. Complete blood and platelet counts were performed daily during the first treatment cycle. They were monitored before treatment for all remaining cycles, and at the average neutrophil nadir (day 8) starting with cycle 4. Significant poikilocytosis developed after the first treatment and remained throughout the study, although anemia did not occur. No other red blood cell abnormalities were seen. Platelet counts remained within the reference range throughout the first treatment cycle, but mild thrombocytopenia (88,000-288,000/uL) was found in 11.3% of subsequent complete blood counts (CBCs). Thrombocytosis was seen in 30.9% of CBCs. Neutropenia did not occur during the first treatment cycle although neutrophil counts did decrease, with the nadir occurring between days 8 and 11. All neutrophil counts returned to pretreatment values by day 14. Neutropenia was documented after 14 of 46 (30.4%) doxorubicin treatments, and was associated with fever in 5 cats (10.9%). All fevers responded to oral antibiotic therapy. Neutropenia that lasted more than 14 days developed in two cats, necessitating dosage reduction to 25 mg/m2 BSA. At the dose used in this study, doxorubicin administration was associated with acceptable hematologic toxicosis in most cats.  相似文献

Cytosine arabinoside (AraC) was administered as a continuous IV infusion to 15 dogs with malignant lymphoma at a dose of 300 mg/m2/d for 2 consecutive days. Dogs were re-examined 7 d after treatment for response to therapy and for hematologic toxicity. Regardless of response, all dogs were started on combination chemotherapy at this time. Other toxicities were reported by owners. No dog responded objectively to Ara-C treatment, although 1 dog with circulating lymphoblasts had partial regression of lymphadenopathy but persistent blastemia. Thrombocytopenia (platelet count < 200,000/μL) 7 days posttreatment was the most commonly encountered hematologic toxicity, occurring in 10 of 14 dogs. Three of these 10 dogs were also mildly neutropenic (neutrophil counts of 2000 to 3000 cell/μL). Nonhematologic toxicity occurred in 8 of 15 dogs and was principally gastrointestinal in nature and mild in severity. Cytosine arabinoside at a dose of 300 mg/m2/day was not considered an active drug for the induction of remission in dogs with lymphoma.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine how rapidly trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole affects serum total thyroxine (T4) and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) concentrations in euthyroid dogs and how quickly hormone concentrations return to reference values following discontinuation of administration. DESIGN: Prospective study. ANIMALS: 7 healthy euthyroid dogs. PROCEDURE: Dogs were given trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (26.5 to 31.3 mg/kg [12 to 14.2 mg/lb], PO, q 12 h) for a maximum of 6 weeks. A CBC and Schirmer tear test were performed and serum total T4 and TSH concentrations were measured weekly. Administration of trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole was discontinued if total T4 concentration was less than the lower reference limit and TSH concentration was greater than the upper reference limit or if persistent neutropenia developed. RESULTS: Six dogs had total T4 concentrations less than the lower reference limit within 3 weeks; T4 concentration was decreased after 1 week in 3 of these 6 dogs. In these 6 dogs, TSH concentration was greater than the upper reference limit within 4 weeks. In 1 dog, T4 and TSH concentrations were not affected, despite administration of trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole for 6 weeks. Neutropenia developed in 4 dogs. In 1 dog, the neutropenia resolved while trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole was still being administered. In the other 3, neutrophil counts returned to reference values 1 week after drug administration was discontinued. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Results suggest that administration of trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole at a dosage of 26.5 to 31.3 mg/kg, PO, every 12 hours can substantially alter serum total T4 and TSH concentrations and neutrophil counts in dogs within as short a time as a few weeks.  相似文献

The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of adrenal stimulation by adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) on blood cortisol concentration and on circulating total and differential leukocyte counts during and in the 16 days after ACTH administration. Swedish Landrace boars aged approximately 6–7 months were used. ACTH-treated animals (n = 7) were given ACTH intravenously at 10 μg/kg body mass for 3 days. A control group of animals (n = 7) received 1 ml of sterile 0.9% saline intramuscularly. ACTH induced a highly significant increase (p>0.0001) in serum cortisol in treated boars. On the day after the last ACTH dose, the cortisol concentration was significantly higher, but the level of significance was lower than during ACTH administration (p>0.05). During ACTH treatment, a significant increase was recorded in total leukocyte count and neutrophil percentage (p>0.05 to p>0.0001), along with the increase in blood cortisol concentration, whereas percentage lymphocyte count showed a significant decrease. Lymphopenia disappeared upon cessation of treatment, but neutropenia developed in the week after treatment. On all three days of ACTH challenge, the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio was significantly increased. An increase in eosinophil percentage was recorded on treatment days 1 and 2, whereas ACTH treatment had no effect on basophil percentage. In conclusion, three-day administration of ACTH to young boars during restraint caused effects similar to acute stress situations, as suggested by disappearance of the effects on immune function after the last drug dosage.  相似文献

Pharmacokinetics of chloramphenicol in the neonatal horse   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
Chloramphenicol sodium succinate was administered as an intravenous bolus (50 mg/kg) to eight foals which weighed 49–57 kg (mean ± 1 standard deviation = 53.19 ± 2.66) each, and were 1–9 days (4.5 ± 2.56) of age. The drug was rapidly distributed and followed first-order elimination. Mean pharmacokinetic values were: zero-time serum concentration (C0) = 36.14 μg/ml (±14.80); apparent specific volume of distribution ( Vd ) = 1.614 1/kg (±0.669); and elimination rate constant ( K ) = 0.7295 h-1 (±0.3066) which corresponds to a biological half-life ( t 1/2) = 0.95 h. These values do not differ greatly from those reported for adult horses and ponies.
A suspension of chloramphenicol was administered by nasogastric tube (50 mg/kg) to a second group of seven foals which weighed 49 to 57 kg (51.34 ± 2.82) each and were 1 to 7 days (4.43 ± 1.90) of age. A mean peak serum chloramphenicol concentration of 23.97 μg/ml (±7.06) was achieved 1.14h (±0.63) after administration. The bioavailability of this preparation was 83.27 percent.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to determine the concentration of enrofloxacin and its active metabolite, ciprofloxacin, in alveolar macrophages (AM) and epithelial lining fluid (ELF) of the lungs in comparison to plasma concentrations in healthy dogs. Eleven dogs were given a single oral dose (5 mg/kg) of enrofloxacin. Four hours later, plasma and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid were collected. Cells were separated from the BAL fluid and lysed for determination of drug concentrations within AM. Supernatant was used to determine concentrations of drugs in ELF. Drug assays were performed by high-performance liquid chromatography.
  The concentration of enrofloxacin (mean ± SD) was 0.33 ± 0.14 μg/mL in plasma, 3.34 ± 2.4 μg/mL in AM and 4.79 ± 5.0 μg/mL in ELF. The concentration of ciprofloxacin was 0.42 ± 0.26 μg/mL in plasma, 1.15 ± 1.03 μg/mL in AM and 0.26 ± 0.26 μg/mL in ELF. Mean concentrations of both drugs in AM were greater than in plasma (AM to plasma ratio, 10.3 for enrofloxacin and 4.7 for ciprofloxacin). Mean concentrations of enrofloxacin, but not ciprofloxacin, in ELF were greater than in plasma (ELF to plasma ratio, 13.5 for enrofloxacin and 0.52 for ciprofloxacin). Enrofloxacin concentrations in AM and ELF largely exceeded the MICs of the major bacterial pathogens and surpassed by about two times the breakpoint MIC of that drug, and ciprofloxacin concentrations in AM surpassed the MIC of many susceptible organisms. These results suggest that sufficient antimicrobial activity is present in AM and ELF of dogs following oral administration of enrofloxacin to be effective in the treatment of lower respiratory tract infections involving susceptible organisms.  相似文献

Vincristine (VCR) and L-asparaginase (L-ASP) are commonly used to treat canine lymphoma. As single agents, these drugs are not myelosuppressive. However, in combination, VCR and L-ASP cause severe neutropenia in some dogs. It has been recommended that L-ASP be administered 12-24 hours after VCR to minimize toxicity. The purpose of this retrospective study was to determine the prevalence of neutropenia after VCR/L-ASP induction therapy for canine lymphoma and to evaluate risk factors for myelosuppression, especially the interval between VCR and L-ASP administration. Medical records of 147 dogs were reviewed. L-ASP was given 0 (n = 50), 6 (n = 23), 18 (n = 20), or 24 (n = 54) hours after VCR. Forty percent of the dogs were neutropenic 7 days after VCR/L-ASP, and 18% had neutrophil counts of <1,000 cells/microL. The median neutrophil count was 3,712 cells/microL (range 0-30,968 cells/microL). No correlation was found between administration interval and day 7 neutrophil count (P = .84) or development of gastrointestinal signs, including vomiting (P = .80), diarrhea (P = .52), and decreased appetite (P = .30). No significant predictors of neutropenia were identified. Higher clinical stage and substage b were associated with decreased appetite after treatment (P = .04 and .01, respectively). Sixteen percent of the dogs were hospitalized. This study demonstrates that VCR/L-ASP induction for canine lymphoma may result in neutropenia but that separation of VCR and L-ASP administration may not be necessary to avoid toxicity.  相似文献

Voriconazole is a new antifungal drug that has shown effectiveness in treating serious fungal infections and has the potential for being used in large animal veterinary medicine. The objective of this study was to determine the plasma concentrations and pharmacokinetic parameters of voriconazole after single-dose intravenous (i.v.) and oral administration to alpacas. Four alpacas were treated with single 4 mg/kg i.v. and oral administrations of voriconazole. Plasma voriconazole concentrations were measured by a high-performance liquid chromatography method. The terminal half-lives following i.v. and oral administration were 8.01 ± 2.88 and 8.75 ± 4.31 h, respectively; observed maximum plasma concentrations were 5.93 ± 1.13 and 1.70 ± 2.71 μg/mL, respectively; and areas under the plasma concentration vs. time curve were 38.5 ± 11.1 and 9.48 ± 6.98 mg·h/L, respectively. The apparent systemic oral availability was low with a value of 22.7 ± 9.5%. The drug plasma concentrations remained above 0.1 μg/mL for at least 24 h after single i.v. dosing. The i.v. administration of 4 mg/kg/day voriconazole may be a safe and appropriate option for antifungal treatment of alpacas. Due to the low extent of absorption in alpacas, oral voriconazole doses of 20.4 to 33.9 mg/kg/day may be needed.  相似文献
