|---|---|
| 32416415 | Etoposide-based protocol including dexametasone is the standard of care for secondary HLH. |
| 32628591 | Anti-inflammatory medications like, corticosteroids, tocilizumab, glycyrrhetinic acid, as well as etoposide may be very advantageous in decreasing the COVID-19 burden because, their mode of action targets the cytokine storms initiated by the CoV-19. |
| 32895676 | Since 1983, etoposide (VP-16) is being used in frontline cancer therapy against various cancer types, such as small cell lung cancer and testicular cancer. […] The treatment aims at dampening the cytokine storm and is based on etoposide in the case of central nervous system. |
| 32931823 | We present a unique case of severe cytokine storm resistant to multiple anti-cytokine therapies, but eventually responsive to etoposide. […] Thus, etoposide may have a role as salvage therapy in treatment of cytokine storm in COVID-19. […] To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of use of etoposide in COVID-19. |
| 33119257 | An RMSD cutoff winnowed down the pool to 12, and free energy analysis (MM/PBSA) produced the final selection of 9 drugs: dihydroergotamine, midostaurin, ziprasidone, etoposide, apixaban, fluorescein, tadalafil, rolapitant, and palbociclib. |
| 33254502 | We further propose the combination of irinotecan (an in-market topoisomerase I inhibitor) and etoposide (an in-market topoisomerase II inhibitor) could potentially be an exceptionally effective treatment to protect critically ill patients from death caused by COVID-19-specific cytokine storms triggered by sepsis, ARDS, and other fatal comorbidities. |
| 33364090 | The patient was diagnosed with HLH as per HLH-2004 criteria and treated with dexamethasone and etoposide. |
| 33523540 | Standard therapy with high-dose glucocorticoids and etoposide used in adults is extrapolated from pediatric trials, with significant toxicity in older patients and those with poor performance status. |
