| pubmed-article:1317217 | pubmed:abstractText | Recent studies in autologous bone marrow or peripheral blood transplantation in solid tumors are discussed. The toxicity and activity of high-dose cisplatin or carboplatin combined with etoposide and other drugs are described. The results of trials in nonseminomatous germ cell tumors, neuroblastoma, ovarian cancer, and brain tumors are detailed and discussed. The impressive antitumor activities noted in certain subgroups should lead to an early application of these strategies before drug resistance becomes prevalent. | lld:pubmed |
