Some types of solid tumors occur only in children, including neuroblastoma and Wilms tumor (a cancer of the kidney).
Common chemotherapy drugs include actinomycin D, vincristine, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide.
____
Actinomycin D from Mayo: This medicine is very toxic and can cause severe damage to your skin, eyes, nose, throat, or lungs.
Vincristine from NIH: Neurotoxicity: This is the most prevalent and dose-limiting adverse effect of vincristine, often manifesting as peripheral neuropathy, which can impact sensory, motor, and autonomic nerves.
Doxorubicin from MedlinePlus: Doxorubicin may cause serious or life-threatening heart problems at any time during your treatment or months to years after your treatment has ended.
Cyclophosphamide from PubMed: Clinically, damage to the bladder (haemorrhagic cystitis), immunosuppression (when not desired) and alopecia are the most significant toxicities associated with cyclophosphamide.
