Abstract / Description of output

BBR 3464 is a novel trinuclear platinum anticancer agent with a broad spectrum of preclinical antitumour activity. A phase I, open-label dose-escalating study was performed to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of BBR 3464 administered in combination with protracted venous infusional (PVI) 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) for up to six courses in patients with locally advanced and/or metastatic cancer.
