Phase II trial of PCNU in breast carcinoma.

abstract：PURPOSE:Pyrazoloacridine (PZA) is an acridine derivative selected for clinical development because of broad pre-clinical antitumor activity and solid tumor selectivity. Phase I evaluations with PZA have demonstrated predictable toxicity and suggested clinical efficacy. A phase II trial in patients with previously untre...
