Vinorelbine (VNR) is highly active in metastatic breast cancer (MBC) and has shown an overall response rate of 40%-50% as first-line treatment. In vitro, a synergy has been observed between this drug and ifosfamide (IFX). In addition, the pharmacokinetics of IFX suggest that it may have greater activity when given by continuous-intravenous infusion (c.i.v.i.). The aim of this study was, therefore, to assess the antitumor efficacy and toxicity of the combination of bolus VNR and c.i.v.i. IFX as second-line therapy in anthracycline-resistant breast cancer patients.
