title: [Treatment of non-small-cell bronchial carcinoma with cisplatin, ifosfamide, vindesine and VP 16].
abstract: Hitherto, the objective of chemotherapy in case of the non-small cell bronchial carcinoma is only of a palliative nature. Thus a critical indication is necessary. This is confirmed by our investigations with the combinations of cis-platinum and ifosfamide (80 patients, remission rate 35%, median survival time of patients with remission 11,5 months), cis-platinum and vindesine (29 patients, remission rate 28%, median survival time of patients with remission 14,5 months), and ifosfamide and vepeside (63 patients, remission rate 27%, median survival time of patients with remission 12 months). The combination ifosfamide-vepeside was much better tolerated by the patients and, with its comparable remission rates and survival times, was superior to the cis-platine combinations. For the chemotherapy of the non-small cell bronchial carcinoma it has to be considered that the treatment result may be more influenced by tumor stage and activity index of the patient than by the therapy method.
