title: [Preliminary results of a phase-II study with DDP (cis-diaminedichloro-platinum) in the small cell bronchogenic carcinoma].
abstract: Eleven patients with measurable, previously treated oat-cell carcinoma of the lung received DDP 80 mg/m2 once every three weeks. The drug was given as a 6-hour infusion. In 4 patients a partial remission was achieved: 2 others showed a minor tumor regression. The main toxicity was vomiting, whereas generally myelosuppression and nephrotoxicity were manageable. Based on these preliminary data, a further investigation of DDP in the treatment of oat-cell carcinoma of the lung is definitely warranted.
