Abstract
70 patients with advanced transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder received methotrexate, vinblastine, doxorubicin and cisplatin (M-VAC). Complete responses (CR) were obtained in 13 of the 67 (19%) evaluable patients and partial responses (PR) in 25 patients for an objective response rate of 57% (95% CI 45–69%). Of the 54 patients who have had a minimum follow-up of 2 years, 8 patients (15%) are disease-free or have stable residual disease. Median survival of the 70 patients was 13 months. Toxicity was acceptable with no drug-related deaths. Because of myelosuppression, only 15 patients (21%) received treatment without delays in drug administration or modifications from the planned schedule. Our results confirm that this regimen is effective, with some patients being long-term survivors.
70例晚期膀胱移行细胞癌患者接受甲氨蝶呤、长春花碱、阿霉素和顺铂(M-VAC)治疗。67例可评估患者中有13例(19%)获得完全缓解(CR), 25例患者获得部分缓解(PR),客观缓解率为57% (95% CI 45-69%)。在54例至少随访2年的患者中,8例患者(15%)无病或有稳定的残余疾病。70例患者的中位生存期为13个月。毒性是可接受的,没有与药物相关的死亡。由于骨髓抑制,只有15名患者(21%)接受了治疗,没有延迟给药或改变计划的时间表。我们的研究结果证实,这种治疗方案是有效的,一些患者长期存活。
