| Research Abstract |
The reimen included more than 6 courses of chemotherapy(CDDP 80 mg/^2 i.v.24 hr infusion and then THP-ADR 30 mg/m^2 i.v.24 hr infusion X2). Twenty two patients(pts)with tumors occupying three segments or more of the liver and 6 pts with distant metastases(median age : 1.8 years)were treated. All pts experienced until December 1993. Among them the primary tumors were completely resected in 20 pts and incompletely in 8 pts after 1 to 8(mean 3.5)courses. According to this regimen CR was obtained in 1 pt, PR in 22 pts(response rate : 82.1%)and NC in 5 pts. No significant ototoxicity, no cardiotoxity and no renal toxicity were encountered. Four pts died : 1 was chemo-related(septicemia)and 3 was tumor-relatede. The disease free survival are 68.2% for nonmetastatic pts and the 2-year survival rate was 82.5(median follow-up period : 21.8 months). The data indicate that this regimen is adequate for the teatment of pts with advanced hepatoblastoma.
