The recommended doses for phase II studies of DX-8951f as a 30-minute infusion daily for 5 days every 3 weeks are 0.5 and 0.3 mg/m(2)/d for MP and HP patients, respectively. The characteristics of the myelosuppressive effects of DX-8951f, paucity of severe nonhematologic toxicities, and antitumor activity against a wide range of malignancies warrant broad disease-directed evaluations of DX-8951f on this schedule.
