[Peripheral blood changes infections and supportive care under intensive chemotherapy for solid tumors CT2 and T6...

Two combination chemotherapy protocols are compared for their toxicity. As expected the T6 protocol is more toxic to the bone marrow when compared to the T2 protocol. The incidence of blood transfusions is increased two to three fold. There is no increased incidence of other severe side effects or acute complications. Both chemotherapy protocols are tolerable if intensive supportive care including platelet transfusions can be provided.
