Adjuvant chemotherapy with procarbazine, vincristine and prednisone for medulloblastomas. A preliminary report
Abstract
The survival of 20 children with medulloblastoma who received adjuvant chemotherapy with procarbazine, vincristine and prednisone after resection and craniospinal irradiation is compared with the preliminary results of the Children's Cancer Study Group (CCSG) and the international Society of Pediatric Oncology (SIOP) medulloblastoma studies. Survival with the chemotherapy used in the SPOG study ws not superior to the survival of children who received craniospinal irradiation only.
