摘要
The combination of carmustine, cisplatin, dacarbazine interferon, and low-dose tamoxifen is widely used in treating metastatic melanoma and was originally reported to acheive a 20% complete response rate. Among 29 patients who completed the authors' phase TI study with the regimen, five (17%) achieved complete remission, and the median duration of response was 8 months (range, 2-14 months). The aim of the study was to evaluate briefly the value and toxicity of this regimen in treating metastatic malignant melanoma.
