Twenty-four patients with a variety of solid tumors entered a Phase I trial with 4-demethoxydaunorubicin, a new analogue of daunorubicin. The drug was given as a single oral dose of 10-60 mg/m 2 repeated every 3-4 weeks. Leukopenia was the dose-limiting toxicity. Other toxic effects included mild t

## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) has modest response rates to chemotherapy with gemcitabine and 5βfluorouracil (5βFU). Fixed dose rate gemcitabine infusion leads to enhanced intracellular accumulation of drug and possible augmented clinical effect. To determine the t
