✦ Synopsis

Thirty patients with advanced measurable colorectal cancer received monthly courses of a combination of dacarbazine, mitomycin C, 5-fluorouracil, and vincristine (FIVMit-Or). Four of the patients had received prior chemotherapy. Two patients were not evaluable for response. Objective response was obtained in four patients. Severe toxicity was encountered in 11 patients. It is concluded that unlike the four-drug combination of 5-fluorouracil, DTIC, vincristine and BCNU (FIVB), the present regimen did not have significant antitumour activity in advanced colorectal cancer.
