Combination chemotherapy with ifosfamide, 5-fluorouracil, cisplatin for stage D2 prostatic cancer

Twelve patients with stage D2 adenocarcinoma of the prostate were treated with the combination chemotherapy of ifosfamide (2 g/body, i.v., day 1-3), 5-fluorouracil (250 mg/body, i.v., day 1-5) and cisplatin (20-30 mg/body, i.v., day 1-5). The averaged age was 62 years (from 52 to 73 years) with mean...

Zusammenfassung:Twelve patients with stage D2 adenocarcinoma of the prostate were treated with the combination chemotherapy of ifosfamide (2 g/body, i.v., day 1-3), 5-fluorouracil (250 mg/body, i.v., day 1-5) and cisplatin (20-30 mg/body, i.v., day 1-5). The averaged age was 62 years (from 52 to 73 years) with mean performance status of 70% (from 40 to 90%). Six patients were refractory to prior hormone therapy or chemotherapy and the other six had received no prior treatment for prostatic cancer. Based on criteria of National Prostatic Cancer Project, 4 patients achieved partial response (PR) which was maintained from 11 to 23 months with the mean of 17.8 months. Two patients achieved objectively stable stage (NC). Response rate (PR + NC) was 50%. Response rate of patients without prior therapy was 80%, whereas that of hormone-resistant group was 30%. There was a trend toward unfavorable response in patients with prior therapy. Adverse effects were mild to moderate gastric problems and myelosuppression except in one case Adverse effects were mild to moderate gastric problems and myelosuppression except in one case with low performance status under 60%. IFP combination chemotherapy achieved favorable responses and toxicities were tolerable. Therefore, it appears worth while to study whether IFP combination chemotherapy could extend the life of patients with advanced prostatic cancer
