title: [Chemotherapy of non-microcellular disseminated bronchial cancer (author's transl)].
abstract: Fifty-one patients suffering from non-microcellular bronchial cancer with metastasis were divided at random into two groups: 33 patients received BACFON polychemotherapy, 18 patients did not receive chemotherapy. There was no global significant difference between the two groups (total mean survival time : 22 weeks with good therapy and 18 without), but a significant difference could be observed if there was an early response (M.S.T. : 38 weeks) compared to no response (M.S.T. : 15 weeks). Similar results were obtained when radiotherapy was associated (M.S.T. : 34 weeks) compared to chemotherapy without radiotherapy (M.S.T. : 22 weeks).
