Epirubicin: a phase II study in recurrent small-cell lung cancer.

abstract：:A total of 2,238 new cancer patients were treated in our institution in 1988; among the 423 (18.9%) who were greater than 70 years old, 51 underwent chemotherapy. The median age was 75.8 years, and the Karnofsky performance status (KPS) was greater than or equal to 70% for 40 patients. Malignancies were hematopoietic ...
