Abstract

Development of a carcinoma in the pancreas of a young man who had five years previously undergone intensive radiotherapy and subsequent chemotherapy for treatment of a lymphoma suggests that induction of the second neoplasm occurred as the result of the therapy of the first. While definitive proof of causality is lacking, a review of recent literature strongly suggests that the association noted in the patient described is more than serendipitous. Increased usage of high‐dose radiotherapy, particularly in conjunction with chemotherapy, may be directly related, and it is imperative that such an association be kept in mind when such patients are seen in follow‐up.

## Abstract The effects of __E. coli__ L‐asparaginase on cultured human pancreatic carcinoma (MIA PaCa‐2) have been studied. The enzyme (1 U/ml) inhibited growth and protein synthesis in both MIA PaCa‐2 and PANC‐1, another pancreatic carcinoma cell line, but had little or no effect on human breast

We tested the effectiveness of dihydroxyanthracenedione (DHAD) on cell growth of two human pancreatic carcinoma cell lines MIA PaCa-2 and PANC-1. At the level of ID,,, the drug was almost equally effective against both cell lines. When the time exposure of MIA PaCa-2 cells to the drug was increased
