Abstract:
:Peglyated liposomal doxorubicin was developed to maintain or enhance the demonstrated antineoplastic effects of doxorubicin, while improving the toxicity profile associated with this important cytotoxic agent. Accumulating clinical data have confirmed the activity of pegylated liposomal doxorubicin in cancers of the breast and ovary. Furthermore, Phase II and III trial experience has revealed that the drug produces objective responses comparable in rate and duration to doxorubicin and other single agents employed in metastatic breast cancer. In recurrent and platinum-resistant ovarian cancer, single-agent pegylated liposomal doxorubicin has assumed an important role in routine patient management.
