Forty-two patients with recurrent or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck were treated with vinblastine, bleomycin, and cisplatin. All patients had received prior surgery, radiation or chemotherapy and all had measurable disease. Forty-five percent of the patients responded with a median duration of response of eight months and median survival of nine months. Six patients (14%) were complete responders and had a median duration of response of 12 months and median survival of 24+ months. Thirteen patients (31%) were partial responders and had a median duration of response of seven months and survival of 13 months. Toxicity was mild with nausea and vomiting occurring in all patients after cisplatin. There were two cases of bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis and two cases of mild renal insufficiency (creatinine clearance level, 45 cc/min). This regimen compares favorably with other published regimens for advanced head and neck cancer.
