  • Conference paper
International Symposium on Adriamycin

Abstract

At Memorial Hospital, New York, 172 children with leukemia and various types of metastatic cancer have been treated with adriamycin. These included the patients treated, and summarized in two abstracts [1,2]. 51 patients with acute leukemia, and 67 with solid tumors received adriamycin alone. The remaining 54 children were given adriamycin either sequentially or in combination with other chemotherapeutic agents, as a multiple drug protocol.
