Anticoagulants in the treatment of small cell carcinoma of the bronchus.
Abstract
The object of this study was to see if the addition of anticoagulants to a regimen of cytotoxic drugs would improve the prognosis in patients with small cell carcinoma of the bronchus. Twenty-four patients were randomly allocated to receive chemotherapy or chemotherapy plus anticoagulants. The median survival in the group receiving the anticoagulants was not improved.
