    Author: Huang DP.
    Journal: Zhonghua Zhong Liu Za Zhi; 1990 May; 12(3):216-8. PubMed ID: 2249598.
    Abstract:
    Forty-two patients with Stage III and IV advanced lung cancer received bronchial arterial infusion of Cyclophosphamide or Mitomycin in combination with Adriamycin and Cisplatin (CAP or MAP). Twenty-six patients were given radiotherapy too. Histologically, 16 had squamous cell carcinoma, 11 adenocarcinoma, 3 small cell anaplastic carcinoma and 1 un-classified cancer. Eleven were diagnosed by bronchial arterial radiography. The short-term results showed that complete response rate (CR) was 53.8% and partial response rate (PR) 38.5% in patients treated with combined chemotherapy and radiotherapy whereas in those treated with infusion chemotherapy, CR and PR were 0% and 81.3% respectively.
