Abstract

Twenty-two patients with small-cell carcinoma of the lung who had failed combination chemotherapy were treated with VP-16-213 as a single agent. A partial remission was achieved in one patient. Twenty-three percent of the patients experienced arrest of disease for a median of 31 weeks. Leukopenia was a major complicating side effect.
