Article Title: Bibliography: Handling considerations for cancer chemotherapeutic agents
Abstract: Since the introduction of antineoplastic agents in the 1940s, there have been reports of the effects of these agents on workers who have had prolonged contact with them. The Regional Oncology Drug Information Center (RODIC) at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center receives numerous inquiries nationwide regarding our policies and procedures for handling antineoplastic agents. In August 1987, RODIC conducted a computerized literature search on the handling of antineoplastic agents and the risks to hospital employees, coming in contact with these agents. We used the MEDLINE system from 1966 to the present, limiting the search to English-language articles. This article provides a comprehensive bibliography on the handling of antineoplastic agents.
