    Abstract:
    Seventeen patients with various histologic types of incurable malignant disease were treated with a combination of vinblastine, bleomycin, and cis-dichlorodiammineplatinum(II). Creatinine and blood urea nitrogen elevations were noted but were not of a severe degree. White blood cell and platelet count depressions were seen and appeared to be cumulative, though not life-threatening. Tinnitus and high-frequency hearing loss were noted. Tumor regression was seen in one patient with adenocarcinoma of the lung and in one patient with a testicular tumor. This appears to be a manageable drug combination with frequent monitoring of renal, hematopoietic, pulmonary, and auditory function. A phase II study establishing the therapeutic efficacy of this combination in advanced testicular neoplasms now appears to be indicated.
