Chemotherapy in invasive thymomas: five case reports
Abstract:
We treated 5 cases of invasive thymomas with single agent and combination chemotherapy. A carcinoid tumor of the thymus had a 13-month objective response to monthly courses of a combination of DTIC, adriamycin, cytoxan, and vincristine. A second case of carcinoid achieved stabilization of disease with a combination of adriamycin, cyclophosphamide, and DTIC for 9 months and subsequently 10 months, with fluorouracil and methotrexate. A case of thymoma had stabilization of disease for 14 months with oral cytoxan and prednisone.

Some cancer cells respond to one...
