Popis: Bladder cancer is the fifth most common cancer in men and the seventh in women. Combination regimens containing cisplatin have produced response rates in 50%70% of patients with complete responses in 20%-30% [1]. Lobaplatin (1,2-diamminomethylcyclobutane-platinum (II) lactate, D-19466) is a third generation platinum analogue. It is water soluble and stable and may not be cross-resistant with cisplatin [2, 3]. A favorable toxicity profile and similar efficacy to cisplatin stimulated a phase II study in patients with advanced urothelial tract tumors.
