Combination chemotherapy of metastatic breast cancer with vincristine adriamycin and prednisolone.

Abstract:

:Fifty patients with metastatic breast cancer were treated with a combination of vincristine, Adriamycin and prednisolone (VAP) at four weekly intervals. Response rates of 78% for soft tissue disease, 66% for parenchymal lung disease, 67% for liver disease, and 64% for pleural effusions were seen. Only 26% of patients with bone metastases showed an objective response. These figures are as good as any previously reported for chemotherapy of breast cancer.
