Phase II trial of merbarone in pancreatic carcinoma. A Southwest Oncology Group study

Abstract

Twenty-nine patients with advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma were treated with merbarone, utilizing a daily intravenous schedule for 5 days. Only two partial responses of short duration were observed. The major toxicities were renal, with an increase in creatinine or proteinuria in 17 patients, and mild to moderate nausea and vomiting seen in 22 patients. Merbarone in this dose and schedule has minimal activity in pancreatic cancer.
