Patient with advanced adenocarcinoma of the pancreas and no prior chemotherapy were treated on a Phase II trial of mitoxantrone. Doses were adjusted for hepatic dysfunction as defined by bilirubin. Twenty-four patients with a bilirubin less than or equal to 1.5 mg% received mitoxantrone 12 mg/m2 i.v. repeated every three weeks. Myelosuppression in the form of leukopenia was the major toxicity. There were no responses in twenty-four evaluable patients.

D010190 Pancreatic Neoplasms Tumors or cancer of the PANCREAS. Depending on the types of ISLET CELLS present in the tumors, various hormones can be secreted: GLUCAGON from PANCREATIC ALPHA CELLS; INSULIN from PANCREATIC BETA CELLS; and SOMATOSTATIN from the SOMATOSTATIN-SECRETING CELLS. Most are malignant except the insulin-producing tumors (INSULINOMA).
