    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Pharmacology
    • Cancer Biology

    Background:

    • Combined chemotherapy requires understanding host-tumor interactions.
    • Clinical neoplasia treatment necessitates optimized drug combinations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review principles of combination drug chemotherapy for increased antitumor specificity.
    • To provide examples of effective combination chemotherapy strategies.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of biochemical concepts: sequential/concurrent blockade, complementary inhibition, error amplification.
    • Analysis of kinetic considerations: cell cycle targeting, synchronization, Go cell stimulation.
    • Integration of combined modalities: surgery, radiation, immunotherapy with chemotherapy.

    Main Results:

    • Strategies for increased effectiveness without proportionate host toxicity.
    • Methods to decrease host toxicity without losing antitumor effectiveness.
    • Approaches to delay or treat resistant mutants and metastatic cells.

    Conclusions:

    • Optimizing drug dosages, ratios, and schedules is crucial for polychemotherapy.
    • Combined modalities and loading dose chemotherapy can improve outcomes for advanced tumors.
    • Further development of methodologies to determine polychemotherapy effectiveness is needed.
