Combination chemotherapy with cisplatin and bleomycin in advanced cervical cancer. 1984

B Bloch, and C P Nel, and A Kriel, and J Atad, and G Goldberg

Seventeen patients with advanced and recurrent squamous cell cervical cancer were treated with a combination of cisplatin and bleomycin. One complete and nine partial responses were observed (53%). The median duration of response was 8 months and the median survival was 12.7 months (5 months for nonresponders). Response was documented, particularly in patients with nodal disease and lung metastases. No life-threatening toxic effects were reported. This combination appears to be as effective as other combinations, has low toxicity, is well-tolerated, and merits further study.

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.
