Abstract

IN the 12 years since its introduction into clinical trials in the United States, etoposide (VP-16–213; epipodophyllotoxin; 4′-demethyl-9-[4,6–0-ethylidene-D-glucopyranoside]) has been demonstrated to be active in the treatment of several neoplastic disorders. Both etoposide and its congener teniposide (VM-26) have been the subjects of a program of detailed clinical research by the National Cancer Institute. Although data on teniposide are as yet incomplete, etoposide has been demonstrated to have cytotoxic activity against several tumors, including testicular and small-cell lung cancers, lymphoma, leukemia, and Kaposi's sarcoma associated with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). In several other diseases, as we will show, its . . .

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
