Abstract

Four of thirteen patients with advanced endometrial adenocarcinoma had an objective response to treatment with cis-dichlorodiammine platinum (II) by high-dose infusion after failing prior intensive combination chemotherapy. The median duration of response was 4 months and there were no unusual toxic reactions. The previous therapy included adriamycin, cyclophosphamide, 5-fluorouracil with progestins, or melphalan, 5-fluorouracil, and progestins.
