Abstract:
Own concept of small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) chemotherapy with multidrug regimen including ifosfamide, adriamycin, and etoposide is presented. In the pilot trial, 67% of remissions in patients with localized, and 33% in patients with disseminated neoplastic process were achieved. Proposed therapy has moderate toxicity, markedly lower than that of the regimen including cis-platin. No nephrotoxicity is worth emphasizing. The authors suggest that proposed regimen may be of value in patients in whom combined chemo- and radiotherapy is foreseen.

Cancer Therapies
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...
