Combination chemotherapy for advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck
Cancer Treat Rep.
1980 Jan.
Abstract
Fifteen patients with advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck were treated with the six-drug Price-Hill regimen (vincristine, bleomycin, methotrexate, hydrocortisone, 5-fluorouracil, and leucovorin). Only two partial remissions were obtained, and the regimen produced moderate toxicity. Our results are not as favorable as those of Price and Hill.
