CLINICAL PARTICULARS 4.1 THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Vinblastine is effective as a single agent, but its therapeutic effect
is enhanced when used in
combination with other antineoplastic drugs.
Vinblastine has been used in the treatment of Hodgkin’s disease
(Stages III and IV) in
combination therapy (with adriamycin (doxorubicin), bleomycin and
dacarbazine as ABVD)
and in the treatment of advanced testicular carcinoma (with cisplatin
and bleomycin).
Vinblastine has been used in the palliative treatment of lymphocytic
lymphoma, histiocytic
lymphoma, advanced stages of mycosis fungoides, Kaposi's sarcoma and
Histiocytosis X.
Vinblastine
may
be
used
in
the
treatment
of
choriocarcinoma
resistant
to
other
chemotherapeutic agents; carcinoma of the breast, unresponsive to
appropriate endocrine
surgery and hormonal therapy.
One of the most effective single agents for treatment of Hodgkin’s
disease is vinblastine. A
protocol substituting cyclophosphamide for nitrogen mustard and
vinblastine for vincristine in
MOPP [mechlorethamine hydrochloride (nitrogen mustard), vincristine
sulfate, prednisone and
procarbazine] is an alternative therapy for previously untreated
patients with advanced
Hodgkin’s disease. Patients suffering relapse have also responded to
combination therapy that
included vinblastine.
