摘要

Two schedules of teroxirone, a triazine triepoxide, were evaluated in a phase I study. Twenty-six patients were treated on 1 day every 5 weeks at doses of 36-2250 mg/m2. At doses greater than or equal to 1500 mg/m2, severe thrombophlebitis was seen without cytotoxic effect, and this schedule was closed. Twenty-seven patients were treated on 5 days every 5 weeks at daily doses of 16-450 mg/m2. Mild thrombophlebitis and moderate leukopenia were encountered. For phase II studies, a dose of 375 mg/m2 X 5 every 5 weeks is recommended. Pharmacologic studies showed rapid plasma elimination, which suggests the agent's possible usefulness for regional infusion.
