pubmed:abstractText |
Topotecan is a specific inhibitor of topoisomerase I. Preclinical data have indicated that topoisomerase I inhibitors demonstrate more efficacy and have a greater therapeutic index with prolonged continuous exposure. The feasibility of this concept in humans using a 21-day continuous infusion of topotecan has been reported. We conducted a phase II study of this 21-day continuous topotecan administration schedule in patients with locally advanced, unresectable or metastatic colorectal cancer.
