Abstract
Cis‐diamminedichloroplatinum (II) cis‐platinum, 25–75 mg/m2, with 40 gm mannitol and fluid were given over 1–2 hours to 40 patients with no evidence of elevated serum creatinine levels. Cis‐platinum was administered every 28 days at a dose of 50mg/m2 to 22 patients, and 75mg/m2 to 6 patients. Patients received from one to eight courses of therapy with no change in their serum creatinine level. A safe, simple method of cis‐platinum administration has been achieved.
