[Pharmacokinetics of antineoplastic agents (author's transl)]
Abstract
The general basis of pharmacokinetics are summarized with the clinical aims of a better utilisation of drugs by the application pharmacokinetic data. The subject is illustrated by some antineoplastic agents especially on high dose methotrexate regimens and clinical use of 5 FU. A pharmacokinetic model may be described with the first agent but for 5 FU no specific model has yet been demonstrated. Some examples of studies on adriamycin and cytosine arabinoside are then given.
