Mitomycin C and bleomycin in the treatment of far-advanced cervical cancer: a Southwest Oncology Group pilot study.

: Under the auspices of the Southwest Oncology Group, Wayne State University tested a schedule using bleomycin and mitomycin C that was previously reported to give a response rate of 88%. In our patients the same regimen produced similar toxic effects but a far different response rate of 15.8% (one complete remission and two partial remissions). The only discernible difference in the two patient groups was the amount of radiation given prior to chemotherapy.
