Twenty-five patients with metastatic breast cancer in progression after prior chemotherapy +/- hormonotherapy were treated with etoposide 50 mg/m2 i.v. days 1 to 5 every 21 days and mitomycin-C 10 mg/m2 i.v. day 1 every 42 days. A partial response (PR) occurred in 10 patients with an overall
Thirty-two patients with advanced breast cancer refractory to combination chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide (CPA), doxorubicin (ADR) and 5-fluorouracil (5-EU) (CAF) were treated with the combination of mitomycin C, etoposide, doxifluridine and medroxyprogesterone acetate as second line therapy.
Thirty-two patients with metastatic breast cancer refractory to chemotherapy with combinations of cyclophosphamide, methotrexate, 5-FU, vincristine, and prednisone were treated with doxorubicin, mitolactol (dibromodulcitol), and mitomycin C. Two complete and 12 partial remissions were observed for a
A randomized clinical trial was performed to determine if combination therapy with doxorubicin, vincristine, and mitomycin C (DVM) was superior to doxorubicin alone in women with metastatic breast cancer for whom prior chemotherapy had failed. A total of 185 women were randomized to monthly courses
Flavopiridol (L86-8275) is a synthetic flavone currently undergoing Phase I clinical trials. It is active against a series of human cancer cell lines and has been shown to inhibit a broad range of protein kinases, including cyclin-dependent kinases and protein kinase C (PKC). Previous studies have
OBJECTIVE
Vinorelbine, a new semi-synthetic vinca alkaloid, has demonstrated high activity as a single agent in pretreated metastatic breast cancer.
METHODS
To evaluate the activity of the combination vinorelbine-mitomycin C and to reduce the incidence of side effects, in particular myelotoxicity,
Nineteen patients with advanced, previously treated breast cancer received treatment with vincristine 2 mg i.v., mitomycin-C 6 mg/m2 and mitoxantrone (Novantrone; dihydroxyanthracenedione) 12 mg/m2 i.v. every three weeks. Thirteen patients are evaluable for response and toxicity. Partial remission
This randomized study was designed to compare the efficacy and toxicity of MMV chemotherapy (mitomycin C(MMC), methotrexate (MTX) and vincristine(VCR)), MMVM (MMV+medroxyprogesterone acetate(MPA)) and MMVP (MMV+prednisolone(P)), and to evaluate potential additional effects of MPA or P to the
This paper describes a randomised clinical trial in patients with advanced breast cancer, comparing the regimen 3M, mitomycin C 7-8 mg m-2 (day 1), mitozantrone 7-8 mg m-2 (day 1 and 21), methotrexate 35 mg m-2 (day 1 and 21) given on a 42 day cycle with a standard anthracycline containing regimen,
BACKGROUND
Alternative and effective drug regimens in patients with metastatic breast cancer progressing after adriamycin- and taxoid-containing regimens are urgently needed.
METHODS
In a phase II trial, 43 heavily pretreated patients with metastatic breast cancer were treated with both carboplatin
Thirty-six evaluable patients with metastatic measurable breast carcinoma previously treated with CMF or CMFVP were given second-line chemotherapy with Adriamycin, vinblastine, and mitomycin C (AVM), as follows: Adriamycin 20 mg/m2 and vinblastine 6 mg/m2 by i. v. push on days 1, 8, and 15, and
Mitomycin C was administered to 22 patients with metastatic breast cancer, refractory to hormonal therapy and conventional chemotherapy. Treatment was given by intravenous bolus injection at 20 mg/m2 of the drug and repeated at 6-week intervals. The overall response rate was 23%. Two complete
In a Phase II study, 50 patients with advanced breast cancer were treated with a combination of 5-fluorouracil (1000 mg/m2 on days 1 and 2) and mitomycin C (6 mg/m2 on day 2) (FuMi regimen). The courses were repeated every third to sixth week. Although 35 patients had previously received combination
BACKGROUND
No standard chemotherapy has been defined for metastatic breast cancer patients pretreated with anthracyclines and taxanes. In preclinical studies, mitomycin C (MMC) and capecitabine showed a synergistic effect by up-regulation of thymidine phosphorylase, and both drugs were active
In an attempt to examine the possibility of decreased toxicity in patients with advanced breast cancer who had not previously received chemotherapy, 33 women were given combination chemotherapy consisting of mitomycin C (10 mg/m2) every 6 weeks and mitoxantrone (6 mg/m2) every 3 weeks. The patients
