pubmed:abstractText |
Treatment of patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma with high-dose interleukin-2 (IL-2) administered as continuous intravenous (CIV) infusion or as bolus injection results in response rates of 15% to 30%; however, toxicities with these regimens have been severe. A trial in which CIV IL-2 was administered at high doses during days 1 to 5 and at reduced doses during days 10 to 20 reported less toxicity without a decrease in response rates. We treated a series of patients with this regimen and our experience is presented.
