## Abstract ## Background. The aims of this study were to determine the recommended dose (RD) in combination chemotherapy of Sβ1 and carboplatin in recurrent and/or metastatic head and neck cancer (phase I) and to examine response rate and toxicities at RD (phase II). ## Methods. Sβ1 was given o
Thirty patients with recurrent and/or metastatic head and neck cancer were treated with sequentially administered methotrexate (MTX) and piritrexim (PTX). The treatment schedule consisted of intravenous (IV) MTX (50 mg/m') administered on day 1 and oral PTX (75 mg/mz) administered twice daily on day
