Abstract Objective The aim of this phase II multicenter study was to evaluate the safety, toxicity and efficacy of docetaxel administered weekly as first line chemotherapy in patients with recurrent or metastatic endometrial cancer. Patients and methods Thirty five patients with recurrent or metastatic endometrial cancer without previous chemotherapy were enrolled to receive three 6-week cycles of docetaxel 35 mg/m 2 /week with 2-week breaks between the cycles. Therapy response was evaluated after every 6-week cycle, and therapy was continued in case of at least stable disease. Final therapy response was evaluated after three 6-week cycles of docetaxel.

Abstract Objectives The aim of this study is to evaluate the activity and toxicity of fulvestrant, a pure estrogen receptor antagonist in patients with advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer, expressing estrogen and/or progesterone receptors (ER/PR). Methods Eligible patients with advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer not amenable to curative surgery and/or radiotherapy were treated with fulvestrant at a dose of 250mg by IM injection every 4weeks for at least 12weeks. Therapy was continued until disease progression, death, intolerable side effects or end of study. Response was assessed in patients with at least one target lesion according to WHO-criteria.

Abstract Background Dose dense chemotherapy (DDT) has shown improvements of disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival for primary breast cancer patients with a high risk of relapse. There are much less data about the effect of DDT in patients with intermediate risk of recurrence (1-3 positive axillary lymph nodes). Aim of this prospectively randomized trial was to investigate the superiority of a DDT schedule over a standard chemotherapy (ST) in primary breast cancer patients with 1-3 positive axillary lymph nodes. Methods The ASG1-3 study is a prospectively randomized, open label phase III study of the Adjuvant Study Group of the NOGGO association. Patients were eligible for the tri…
