Bleomycin, vincristine, mitomycin-C, and cisplatin in the management of gynecological squamous cell carcinomas

Abstract

Twenty-one patients with squamous carcinoma of the genital tract were treated with bleomycin, Oncovin, mitomycin-C, and cisplatin (BOMP). Six patients received BOMP as primary therapy. Five of six responded with one patient having an autopsy-proven complete response after treatment for a disseminated adenosquamous carcinoma. Eight patients were treated for early recurrence, none responded. Seven patients were treated for late recurrences and one responded. We believe that BOMP has significant potential for primary treatment, but not for early or late recurrent disease.
