    Notes: Summary We analyzed the results of clinical studies on the therapeutic efficacy of hormone monotherapy with tamoxifen, medroxyprogesterone acetate, and aminoglutethimide in metastatic breast cancer, which were published between 1971 and 1986 and involved altogether 7000 patients. The overall response rates in patients treated with these hormonal single agents at various dose levels ranged from 31%–42%. When only estrogen receptor-positive patients were considered, the response rates lay between 41% and 54% in groups which were treated with the antiestrogenic agents tamoxifen or aminoglutethimide. The duration of remission was 12 months for tamoxifen- and aminoglutethimide-treated women, whereas medroxy-progesterone acetate effected remissions lasting from 6–16 months. The overall mean survival from start of therapy in tamoxifen- and aminoglutethimide-treated groups was 20 months, whereas information concerning this therapeutic parameter was available only in a minority of medroxyprogesterone acetate-treated groups. With respect to the response by site of metastatic lesions, all three agents caused a significantly higher degree of remissions in the soft tissue as compared to visceral disease.

    Notes: Summary Tumors of the forestomach were induced in male Sprague-Dawley rats by oral application of acetoxymethyl-methylnitrosamine (AMMN) in single weekly doses of 3.5 mg/kg body weight for 10 weeks. 100±5 days after the beginning of carcinogen treatment exploratory laparotomy was performed. One hundred animals in the same stage of tumor development were divided at random into one control group and four groups treated with cytostatics. Bleomycin (BLM), methotrexate (MTX), 5-fluorouracil (5FU), and 1,2-bis-(2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea (BCNU) were tested in groups of 20 rats each. Only in animals receiving repeated doses of BLM a slight tumor response was observed but no increase in median survival times was seen. No therapeutic effects of the other drugs used were demonstrable.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die homologe Reihe der Alkyl-Acetoxymethyl-Nitrosamine wurden auf ihre carcinogene Wirkung an SD Ratten getestet. Alle Verbindungen induzieren bei oraler Gabe innerhalb der gleichen Zeit Vormagentoumoren. Die benötigten Gesamtdosen sind dabei abhängig von der Länge der Alkyl-Kette und damit der Wasserlöslichkeit. Diese Ergebnisse werden diskutiert.
    Notes: Summary The homologons alkyl-acetoxymethyl-nitrosamines were tested for carcinogenicity in SD rats. All compounds were found to be carcinogenic and induced within the same time carcinomas of the forestomach. The total doses necessary for induction of tumors are related to the length of the alkyl chain and hence to the watersolubility. These results are discussed.

    Notes: Summary In a lifetime experiment benzo(a)pyrene (B(a)P) was administered to Sprague-Dawley rats either as an admixture to the diet or by gavage in an aqueous 1.5% caffeine solution. Dissolved benzo(a)pyrene induced more tumors of the forestomach than undissolved benzo(a)pyrene. The 1.5% caffeine solution (annual dose 27 g/kg) did not exert any carcinogenic activity under the conditions of this bioassay.

    Notes: Summary The results of clinical studies dealing with first and second line chemotherapy of metastatic breast cancer published between 1975 and early 1986 which involved 9350 women were reviewed. Our special aim was to evaluate combination chemotherapy and its influence on overall survival in late stage breast cancer patients. No significant improvement in overall survival times was found in this selected group of patients who were treated with intense palliative chemotherapy.
