Weekly docetaxel in minimally pretreated cancer patients: A dose- escalation study focused on feasibility and cumulative toxicity of long-term administration
Briassoulis, E. Ch; Karavasilis, V.; Anastasopoulos, D.; Tzamakou, E.; Fountzilas, George; Rammou, D.; Kostadima, Vasiliki; Pavlidis, Nicholas (1999)Background: Docetaxel is an agent with impressive clinical activity but a rather poor profile of toxicity when given every three weeks. Therefore, optimisation of its clinical use is highly warranted. This is a dose- ...
