Production, isolation and chemical characterization of mimosamycin.

A procedure is described for the large-scale production of mimosamycin, a satellite antibiotic found in the culture filtrate of Streptomyces lavendulae No. 314. The 1H and 13C NMR, and mass spectroscopic data, are explained in terms of the structure of mimosamycin.

Intensive sequential post-induction therapy for adults with acute myelogenous leukemia in first remission: long-term follow-up and results.

We designed a post-induction therapy including intensive sequential therapy with non-cross-resistant drugs in an effort to prolong disease-free survival (DFS) for adults with acute myelogenous leukemia. Forty-five patients entered this study and 33 of 35 patients entering complete remission received the post-induction therapy. With a median follow-up for survivors of 3.5 years from complete remission, the actuarial 5-year DFS was 46% +/- 19% (95% confidence interval). The five-year DFS for patients over 45 years of age was comparable to that for patients under 45 years of age (50% +/- 26% vs 47% +/- 28%). Furthermore, the actuarial 5-year DFS for patients who required two courses of induction therapy was comparable to that for patients who required only one course of induction therapy (45% +/- 29% vs 50% +/- 25%). The toxicity of post-induction therapy was tolerable and no patients died during complete remission.
