Adriamycin and cis-dichlorodiammineplatinum in nonresectable and metastatic carcinoma of the lung. 1979

R W Morris, and L H Brubaker, and C G Kardinal, and R L Carolla, and M C Perry

The combination of adriamycin and cis-dichlorodiammineplatinum (DDP) was evaluated in 20 patients with nonresectable and metastatic carcinoma of the lung. Both drugs were administered at a dosage of 60 mg/m2 intravenously every 3 weeks. The overall objective response rate was 40% (eight of 20 patients) with two complete responses (CR) and six partial responses (PR). Four of eight patients with small cell carcinoma responded (1 CR and 3 PR) and four of 12 patients with nonsmall cell carcinoma responded (1 CR and 3 PR). The median duration of response was greater than 36 weeks. The median survival of responders was 54 weeks. Nausea and vomiting were major side effects but rarely lasted longer than 2 days. Renal and bone marrow toxicities were generally minimal and controlled by dosage reduction. However, there was one death secondary to severe myelosuppression.

D009325	Nausea	An unpleasant sensation in the stomach usually accompanied by the urge to vomit. Common causes are early pregnancy, sea and motion sickness, emotional stress, intense pain, food poisoning, and various enteroviruses.
D002282	Adenocarcinoma, Bronchiolo-Alveolar	A carcinoma derived from epithelium of terminal bronchioles, in which the neoplastic tissue extends along the alveolar walls and grows in small masses within the alveoli. Involvement may be uniformly diffuse and massive, or nodular, or lobular. The neoplastic cells are cuboidal or columnar and form papillary structures. Mucin may be demonstrated in some of the cells and in the material in the alveoli, which also includes denuded cells. Metastases in regional lymph nodes, and in even more distant sites, are known to occur, but are infrequent.

D002283	Carcinoma, Bronchogenic	Malignant neoplasm arising from the epithelium of the BRONCHI. It represents a large group of epithelial lung malignancies which can be divided into two clinical groups: SMALL CELL LUNG CANCER and NON-SMALL-CELL LUNG CARCINOMA.

D002294	Carcinoma, Squamous Cell	A carcinoma derived from stratified SQUAMOUS EPITHELIAL CELLS. It may also occur in sites where glandular or columnar epithelium is normally present.

D002945	Cisplatin	An inorganic and water-soluble platinum complex. After undergoing hydrolysis, it reacts with DNA to produce both intra and interstrand crosslinks. These crosslinks appear to impair replication and transcription of DNA. The cytotoxicity of cisplatin correlates with cellular arrest in the G2 phase of the cell cycle.

This concept includes clinical trials conducted both in the U.S. and in other countries.	Clinical Trial as Topic
