Ifosfamide in the treatment of soft tissue sarcomas.

Elizabeth Connelly, G. Thomas Budd

Open publisher page 18 citations

Abstract

Ifosfamide is one of the three most active agents in the treatment of soft tissue sarcomas. Ifosfamide-induced urothelial toxicity has been adequately controlled with the use of hydration and the uroprotective agent mesna. This is a review of pilot and phase I and II studies of ifosfamide as a single agent and randomized trials of combination chemotherapy regimens incorporating ifosfamide in the treatment of soft tissue sarcomas. Issues of schedule and dose of ifosfamide will be addressed as well.
