  • Title: Chemotherapy of malignant thymoma. Case report and review of the literature.
    Author: Hu E, Levine J.
    Journal: Cancer; 1986 Mar 15; 57(6):1101-4. PubMed ID: 3080220.
    Abstract:
    The authors report the case of a patient with malignant thymoma unresponsive to combination chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone [CHOP] and cisplatin/VP-16) who subsequently achieved clinical response to continuous daily prednisone. A review of the literature indicates that prednisone and cisplatin are the most active agents in the treatment of malignant thymoma.
