pubmed-article:7842417 | pubmed:abstractText | A prior Phase II study of a 100-mg/m2 dose of docetaxel conducted at the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (New York, NY) demonstrated a 38% response rate with grade 3 or 4 neutropenia in 76% of the patients and a grade 2 or greater rash or infusion-related reaction in 41% and 34% of the patients, respectively. The current Phase II study sought to determine the activity of a 75-mg/m2 dose of docetaxel to establish whether this lower dose, combined with prednisone, ameliorates toxicity. | lld:pubmed |
