ExcerptRelevanceReference
" The limited therapeutic benefit did not justify the toxicity produced, and suggested that intensive dosage schedules of vincristine, and use of low dose hexamethylmelamine during the time of anticipated hematologic nadir counts would not be of substantial benefit."( Adriamycin, vincristine, dibromodulcitol, and hexamethylmelamine in advanced previously treated breast cancer: an ECOG pilot study.
