Chemotherapy with FUDR in the management of metastatic renal cell carcinoma

P Aveta et al. Ann Urol (Paris). 1997.

Abstract

Metastatic renal cell carcinoma has a poor prognosis, requiring systemic therapy, in addition to radical nephrectomy. Since August 1989, 50 patients were treated with continuous, systemic, chronobiological infusion of FUDR (floxuridine) at our Institution. We reported 11.7% of objective responses, a long period of stable disease and low toxicity. We also compared our actuarial survival with the results obtained with recombinant IL-2 treatment.
