Abstract
Twenty-five patients with recurrent or advanced-stage endometrial cancer were treated with cisplatin, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide (PAC) from May 1982 to November 1987. A retrospective chart analysis was performed to evaluate the effect of treatment on survival and progression-free interval. Toxicity was moderate. Neutropenia was the most common side effect. Age, performance status, and tumor cytoreduction were statistically significant predictors of survival time ( P < 0.03). In the 17 evaluable patients, the response rate was 47%. PAC is an active regimen in the treatment of endometrial cancer. Larger prospective studies are needed to evaluate whether tumor cytoreduction is important in the treatment of this disease.
