Popis: Thirty-four assessable patients with advanced squamous cell and adenocarcinoma of the lung were treated with weekly MGBG in a phase II trial. Only one partial response, in adenocarcinoma, was observed. Myelosuppression was mild to moderate. Major toxicities consisted of myalgia, myopathy, mucositis, gastrointestinal and pronounced vasculitis in one patient. It would appear that MGBG does not have sufficient antitumor activity to warrant further investigation in advanced squamous cell and adenocarcinoma of the lung.
