Pancreatic Islet Cell Carcinoma: II. Results of Therapy with Streptozotocin in 52 Patients

BRODER, LAWRENCE E., CARTER, STEPHEN K.·1973·Annals of Internal Medicine

Abstract

The clinical experience with streptozotocin (NSC-85998) in 52 patients with metastatic islet cell carcinoma was analyzed. The drug was given intravenously in 44 patients and intra-arterially in 8 patients, most often on a weekly schedule of administration of 0.6 to 1.0 g/m2 body surface area. Biochemical responses were seen in 64% of evaluable functional cases, and measurable disease responses were seen in 50% of these cases. Insulin responses occurred 2 to 3 weeks after drug administration at a total dose of about 2 to 4 g/m2 body surface area. A significant increase in 1-year survival rate and a doubling of median survival were shown for the responders as compared with the nonresponders. Acute toxicity, consisting of nausea and vomiting, was observed in 98% of the cases, whereas renal or hepatic toxicity was seen in 65% and 67% of the cases, respectively. Hematological toxicity, observed in 20% of the cases, was mild. Renal and hepatic toxicity were usually reversible, but five patients died in renal failure.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
