Fifty-three patients with metastatic osteogenic sarcoma were treated with vincristine, high-dose methotrexate with citrovorum factor rescue, and cisplatin. Metastases were surgically removed in most patients, either prior to chemotherapy or following initial response to therapy. Among 29 previously treated patients, responses to initial chemotherapy included two complete remissions, six partial remissions, and eight patients with stable disease. Twenty-three patients were disease-free, six for greater than 12 months. Toxicity was moderate, but usually reversible. There were two toxic deaths and one unexplained death 48 hours following a dose of cisplatin.
