Abstract
This phase-2 trial showed that the HIV protease inhibitor indinavir may boost and extend the duration of the effects of chemotherapy in elderly with advanced progressive classic Kaposi sarcoma, without additional toxicity. Further, the amelioration of the immune status seen in responders suggests a better control of HHV-8 infection and tumor-cell killing. Thus, indinavir combined with chemotherapy may represent an important tool for the clinical management of classic Kaposi sarcoma in elderly patients.
