## Abstract ## BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to determine the response rate and toxicity of gemcitabine and continuous‐infusion 5‐fluorouracil (5‐FU) in combination with subcutaneous interleukin‐2 (IL2) and interferon‐α (IFNA) in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma. ## METH
Preclinical data suggest synergy of interleukin-2 (IL-2) combined with alphainterferon (IFN). In addition, toxicities of IL-2 may be decreased by intermittent continuous infusion. The purpose of this trial was to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of recombinant IL-2 combined with alpha-IFN
## Background: The main objective of this trial was to evaluate the combination of subcutaneous (sc) interleukin-2 (il-2) with interferon alpha-2a (ifn-alpha) in the treatment of patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mrcc) compared with a previous trial that used continuous-infusion il-2 a
