## BACKGROUND. Interferon in combination with 5-fluorouracil has been shown to be active in squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and adenocarcinoma (AC) of the esophagus. 13-cis-retinoic acid (CRA) has chemopreventive activity in SCC of the head and neck, and, in combination with interferon, has antitumo
## Abstract ## Background. We have previously conducted phase II trials with a combination of 13‐__cis__‐retinoic acid (13‐cRA), interferon‐α2a (IFN‐α2a), and α‐tocopherol (α‐TF) in patients with advanced oral premalignant lesions and locally advanced head and neck cancer in the adjuvant settings
## Background: In patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mrcc), interferon-alpha (ifn) monotherapy leads to response rates of 5-15%, dependent on the selection of patients. in 1995, preclinical and clinical data indicated an improvement of these results if ifn was combined with 13-cis retin
