  • Title: Infusional cisplatin and etoposide in the treatment of stage III-B and IV non-small cell lung cancer: a well tolerated regimen.
    Author: Glynn P, Higby D, Moriarty E, Ficalora M, Volpe B, Koletsky A, White C.
    Journal: J Med; 1994; 25(3-4):193-201. PubMed ID: 7996063.
    Abstract:
    Twenty-eight evaluable patients were treated with an infusion of cisplatin and etoposide for advanced non-small cell lung cancer. A response was demonstrated in 43%, although only two patients had documented partial responses. The regimen was surprisingly low in toxicity, both acute and chronic, and is suitable for palliation of patients who are elderly or suffer from chronic illnesses which preclude more agressive therapy.
