Abstract:
Purpose:Clinical research has been done to show whether continuous infusion of navelbine can increase curative effect and decrease toxicity.Methods:Patients studied were non operable NSCLC and recurrent or metastatic breast cancer. Navelbine is given through a catheter in the venae subclavia by continuous infusion for 24 hours. Regimen:NVB 10 mg/iv/day 1+NVB 10 mg/iv continuous infusion 24 h/day 1—5+DDP 40 mg/iv 2h/day 1—3+Gransetron 3 mg/iv day1,3,5 given every 21 days. Results:Among 47 patients 35 patients were NSCLC and 12 patients were breast cancer. Average age was 58.9 years. Of the NSCLC patients, 12 were squamous cell carcinoma and 23 patients were adenocarcinoma; two patients were stage Ⅱ and 19 patients stage Ⅲ, 19 patients stage Ⅳ. All of the breast cancer cases were infiltrative duct carcinoma. Three patients were stage Ⅱ and nine patients were stage Ⅳ. Of the 47 patients, 44 patients were evaluable for response and 47 patients for toxicity. Response rate of NSCLC was 57%(19 pr) and breast cancer 63% (1 cr, 6 pr). Main toxicity was granulocytopenia and vomiting. WHO Ⅲ—Ⅳ grade granulocytopenia was 40% and vomiting 6.4%. Peripheral nerves toxicity was mild and only 6.4% patients had WHO I grade peripheral sensory nerve damage. No patients had severe nerve toxicity such as enteroplegia.Conclusions:Comparison of continuous infusion Navelbine and Cisplatin with classic usage of navelbine for management of NSCLC and breast cancer showed increased response rate and decreased toxicity. Administration through catheter venae subclavia can avoid chemo phlebitis. [
