摘要：
Background. The nucleoside analog gemcitabine is a potent radiosensitizer of both tumor and normal mucosa, so severe toxic reactions have resulted from its combination with radiation in some clinical treatment schedules for pancreatic cancer. WR-2721 (amifostine) has been shown to reduce normal tissue toxicity produced from both radiation treatment and some chemotherapeutics. The aim of this study was to determine if WR-2721 can protect the gastrointestinal mucosa from injury by concurrent gemcitabine and radiation treatment.
