Bleomycin effects on malignant tumors of the male genitalia

Progress in Biochemical Pharmacology
P Rathert, W Lutzeyer

Abstract

Bleomycin was applied alone or in combination with actinomycin D, vinblastine, radiation and/or surgery in cancer of the penis (6) and testis (6). In early stages of penile cancer (T2 N0 M0) a total response was noted. The failure in advanced stages is discussed. In terato-, embryonal- and choriocarcinomas of the testis (T2-4 N0-2 M0-1) remarkable responses of short and long duration were observed in all patients. The reasons for different biological action are discussed.
