Pemetrexed in combination with cisplatin is the first treatment regimen that demonstrates a survival improvement in patients with unresectable malignant pleural mesothelioma. Data from uncontrolled studies suggest similar antineoplastic efficacy in patients with mesothelioma of peritoneal origin. Preliminary results also suggest a possible survival advantage for a combination of cisplatin and raltitrexed as compared to cisplatin ...Continue Reading
