โœฆ Synopsis


EIACKGROUND.

Many patients with advanced transitional cell carcinoma are unable to receive cisplatin-based therapy. The efficacy and toxicity of a carboplatin-based regimen in the treatment of patients with advanced transitional cell carcinoma was therefore evaluated.

METHODS.

Twenty-three patients with advanced transitional cell carcinoma were treated. Metastatic disease was present in 19 of 23 patients (83%) whereas 4 patients with T4, andlor N1, disease were treated. Patients were treated every 28 days with methotrexate, 30 mglm' intravenously (Lv.) on Days 1 and 15, along with leucovorin, 15 mglm' orally every 6 hours, 3 times daily beginning 24 hours after each methotrexate dose; vinblastine, 3 mg/m2 i.v. on Days 1 and 15; mitoxantrone, 15 ing/m2 i.v. on Day 1; and carboplatin, 300 mglm2 i.v. on Day 1, adjusted for creatinine clearance (MVNCa). Dosage in subsequent cycles was adjusted according to hematologic toxicity.
