Official title
Serial Blood and Salivary Sampling for Validation of Quantitative Amifostine Assays
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Currently, there are no published methods for easily determining the level of amifostine in the blood or saliva. A method has been developed within the Department of Radiation Oncology by Drs. Douglas Spitz and Gurminder Sidhu, within the Spitz Lab. This method has been tested using both animal sampling and expired blood (obtained from DeGowin blood center) mixed with amifostine. If the method proves successful, it could then be used as a tool to quantify blood and salivary amifostine levels and possibly correlate them to treatment efficacy or limiting adverse events using amifostine. A better method of treatment, either increasing the efficacy of amifostine or reducing its unwanted side effects, could then be developed.
