title: Phase II study of fludarabine phosphate (NSC-312887) in patients with advanced endometrial cancer. A Southwest Oncology Group Study.
abstract: Nineteen evaluable patients with advanced endometrial cancer refractory to one prior chemotherapeutic regimen were treated with a 5-day schedule of fludarabine phosphate. No responses were noted. The major toxicity was grade 2 or greater leukopenia in 45% of patients. Fludarabine phosphate at this dose and schedule does not appear to be an active agent for patients with refractory endometrial cancer.
