  • CCNU (Lomustine)  + (The toxicity level of CCNU is quite high dThe toxicity level of CCNU is quite high due to several common side effects. Most notably, it can cause hematological toxicity, which means it can damage your blood cells and affect your body's ability to fight infections and clot properly. It can also cause nausea, vomiting, and pulmonary toxicity, which can lead to lung damage. On a scale from 1 to 5, with 5 being the most toxic, CCNU is rated as a 4. However, despite these side effects, the treatment showed promising results in a clinical trial.wed promising results in a clinical trial.)
  • Thyroid Hormone T4 (Thyroxine) Suppression  + (The toxicity level of Thyroid Hormone T4 SThe toxicity level of Thyroid Hormone T4 Suppression Therapy is rated as a 2, which indicates a low level of toxicity. This is because the therapy is designed to suppress the hormone levels in the body and replace them with a synthetic version to help fight cancer cells. The side effects, such as fatigue, are typically manageable, especially when the treatment is carefully monitored. Nonetheless, this therapy is not without potential side effects and it is applied off-label, hence it's necessary to discuss with your healthcare provider. to discuss with your healthcare provider.)
  • Trial of three drugs plus temodar  + (The toxicity level of this treatment is reThe toxicity level of this treatment is relatively high because it involves a combination of drugs repurposed for different conditions with Temodar, a chemotherapy drug used to treat brain tumors. While the exact toxicity can vary based on the specific combination, the potential for increased toxicity from the chemotherapy component remains a significant risk. This toxicity can result in side effects ranging from mild symptoms such as nausea and fatigue, to more severe ones like infections or bleeding. However, in some cases, the potential benefits, like potentially longer survival periods, may outweigh these risks. It should be noted that the safety and efficacy of these combinations are still under investigation, and results to date have been mixed.tion, and results to date have been mixed.)
