## BACKGROUND. Both paclitaxel and mitoxantrone demonstrate significant antineoplastic activity in breast cancer patients. Colony stimulating factor support allows significant dose escalation of each of these drugs when administered as a single agent. ## METHODS. We performed a Phase I study empl
Background. A combination of carboplatin (CBDCA) and oral etoposide is better tolerated than, and as effective as, more aggressive chemotherapy regimens in patients with advanced nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC). A Phase 1/11 study was conducted to determine whether the addition of the granulocyte-
## BACKGROUND. Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) is a cytokine that is involved in the differentiation and proliferation of various hematopoietic precursors. It also has been reported to enhance the antitumor activity of various mature effector cells. Previous reports have
## Background: Topotecan is a new antineoplastic agent with a broad spectrum of activity. the purpose of this phase i trial was to define the maximum tolerated dose of topotecan when added to the widely used combination of paclitaxel and carboplatin. ## Methods: Patients with advanced cancer that
