Abstract
Twenty-nine patients with metastatic breast cancer were treated with methyl-GAG at an initial starting dose of 500 mg/m2 iv weekly and then escalated by 50 mg/m2/week to tolerance. There were two partial responders among the 26 evaluable patients. Gastrointestinal and cutaneous reactions were the limiting toxic effects of methyl-GAG. Myelosuppression was mild and infrequent.Entities:
