Combination chemotherapy with vinblastine, bleomycin and methotrexate in DTIC-resistant metastatic melanoma

Fifteen patients with metastatic DTIC-resistant malignant melanoma were treated with vinblastine, bleomycin and methotrexate combination chemotherapy. Three patients showed an objective response (one complete response). The therapy was well tolerated and easy to administer. This combination appears to produce in DTIC-resistance patients a response rate similar to that obtained with DTIC.
