Abstract

Vindesine is a derivative of vinblastine and of vincristine. A high proportion of remissions were obtained in acute lymphoid leukaemia (6 complete and 1 incomplete remissions in 15 patients), in blastic crisis of chronic myeloid leukaemia, and a few responses have been registered in lymphosarcoma and Hodgkin's disease. Permanent 48 h i.v. infusion may include a remission where i.v. pusch of the same dose has failed. The most remarkable characteristic of vindesine is the absence of cross-resistance with vincristine as documented in acute lymphoid leukaemia.
