Twenty evaluable patients with advanced cervical cancer refractory to one prior chemotherapy regimen were treated with a 5-day schedule of fludarabine phosphate. No responses were noted. The major toxicities were anemia and leukopenia. Based on this study, fludarabine phosphate does not appear to be an active agent for patients with chemotherapy refractory cervical cancer.
