ABSTRACT:
L-amino acid oxidase is utilized to reduce plasma level of large neutral amino acids to allow the opportunity of increased melphalan transport into tumors and melphalan is administered when the plasma level of L-amino acid oxidase is sufficiently low so the gain from increased transport outweighs the loss from L-amino acid oxidase-mediated metabolism of melphalan.
