Fifteen patients with locally advanced refractory breast cancer have been treated with recombinant leucocyte interferon ( rIFN -alpha A) for up to 12 weeks. Toxicity was considerable with the initial dosage schedule employed but became acceptable after reducing the starting dose by 50%. Minor side effects occurred in all patients and major CNS toxicity in six. Nine patients showed some evidence of tumour regression at 4 weeks. Only two of these were still responding at 12 weeks. Response was unrelated to the length of previous history, oestrogen receptor status or previous responsiveness to cytotoxic or hormone therapy.
15例局部晚期难治性乳腺癌患者接受了重组白细胞干扰素(rIFN-αA)治疗,疗程长达12周。采用最初的给药方案时毒性相当大,但在将起始剂量降低50%后毒性变得可以接受。所有患者均出现轻微副作用,6例出现严重中枢神经系统毒性。9例患者在4周时显示出一些肿瘤消退的迹象。其中只有2例在12周时仍有反应。反应与既往病史的长短、雌激素受体状态或既往对细胞毒性或激素治疗的反应无关。
