Phase II study of methyl-glyoxal bis-guanylhydrazone (NSC 3296) in advanced ovarian cancer.
Thirty-nine patients received 600 mg/m2 OF MGBG intravenously every week for the treatment of advanced refractory ovarian cancer. Twenty-seven of these received adequate trials, and only two had partial remissions lasting 3 1/2 and 4 months each. Toxicity was substantial, with severe hematologic toxicity in 26%, diarrhea in 22% (severe in 7%), skin rash in 26% (severe in 7%), and vomiting in 70% (severe in 11%). Fatigue, facial paresthesias, and flushing during drug administration were frequent. It appears that MGBG in this dose and schedule has little activity against advanced ovarian cancer.

[Histochemical and ultrastructural investigations on the activity of methylglyoxal (bis)-guanylhydrozan (methyl-GAG) on organ cultures of malignant tumors (author's transl)].
Methyl-GAG was tested in organotypic cultures of malignant tumors of human and mice. In 3 cases, a reduction of the activity of two oxydoreductases (lactate dehydrogenase and NADH-diaphorase) after treatment with methyl-GAG was observed whereas in 19 other cultivated tumors no change of enzyme activity was induced by methyl-GAG. Electronmicroscopy revealed only minor structural alterations of tumor cells after application of methyl-GAG as compared with control cultures.
