    Abstract:
    Intra-arterial infusion chemotherapy in combination with angiotensin II was performed in 5 patients with advanced bladder cancer (all T3M0). The infusion catheter was inserted from a femoral artery into the internal iliac artery. The basic dosage was 70 mg/m2 of Cis-diammine-dichloroplatinum (CDDP) and 40 mg/m2 of Adriamycin (ADM) or 4'-0-tetrahydropyranyl-ADM (THP) in combination with 20-40 micrograms angiotensin II over a total duration of 20 minutes for both sides. Of the 5 patients, 3 CR and 2 PR were obtained by only one or two courses of intra-arterial infusion chemotherapy. Histological examination showed no viable cells in the three CR cases. Intra-arterial infusion chemotherapy in combination with angiotensin II may thus be clinically useful for advanced bladder cancer.
