Ecteinascidin 743: a novel anticancer drug with a unique mechanism of action.

abstract：:Octreotide appears to have a major therapeutic effect in the management of diarrhoea related to cancer therapy. This effect is seen in the acute diarrhoea following radiation therapy and chemotherapy, and also in late radiation enteritis. As well as providing improved symptom control, early treatment can prevent poten...
