A patient with brain metastases of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) responded initially to cranial irradiation. Recurrences were subsequently successfully treated with high-dose intravenous etoposide (VP 16-213) and teniposide (VM 26). Epipodophyllotoxins are potentially useful for CNS metastases of SCLC.
