Vinblastine, adriamycin, thiotepa, and halotestin (VATH): therapy for advanced breast cancer refractory to prior chemotherapy.

Abstract:

:Nineteen postmenopausal patients with metastatic breast cancer refractory to conventional combination chemotherapy were treated with monthly cycles with the combinations of vinblastine, adriamycin, thiotepa and halotestin. Ten patients (52%) responded with a greater than 50% regression of measurable tumor. The median duration of response was 11.5 months, with 5/10 patients still responding at a mean follow-up of 10 months. Only 2/10 responders have died with a mean follow-up of 13.8 months. In contrast, 8/9 nonresponders have died (median survival 6.0 months). Response to therapy was neither influenced by site of disease, time interval from diagnosis to primary chemotherapy nor duration of response to primary chemotherapy. No patient was hospitalized because of drug induced toxicity. This combination of drugs is a tolerable effective regimen for patients relapsing after adjuvant chemotherapy or after primary combination chemotherapy for grossly metastatic disease.
