Abstract

A combination of carboplatin, vincristine, methotrexate and bleomycin (COMB) was given to 29 patients with locally advanced, metastatic or recurrent cervical carcinoma. A total of 85 cycles of chemotherapy were given, with half of the patients receiving greater than 3 cycles. Both the response rate (32.1%) and the median duration of response (30 weeks) were relatively disappointing. Renal toxicity was minimal, but one-third of our patients experienced severe (WHO grades 3 and 4) nausea and vomiting. This combination showed little advantage over carboplatin used as a single agent.
