  • Title: Tolerance of nicotinamide and carbogen with radiation therapy for glioblastoma.
    Author: Pickles T, Graham P, Syndikus I, Rheaume DE, Duncan GG, Green A, Marlow C.
    Journal: Radiother Oncol; 1996 Sep; 40(3):245-7. PubMed ID: 8940752.
    Abstract:
    Nineteen patients with glioblastoma were treated with nicotinamide and carbogen and radiotherapy. Eight patients did not complete the protocol because of hepatic toxicity from phenytoin/nicotinamide drug interactions, persistent nausea or vomiting with nicotinamide, intolerance of the carbogen breathing apparatus, or other reason. In addition, early radiation neurotoxicity appeared increased.
