Phase-I-study of four different schedules of pemetrexed, gemcitabine and cisplatin in patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumours.

This non-randomised Phase-I-study determined recommended dose (RD) and dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) of four different schedules combining pemetrexed (P), gemcitabine (G) and cisplatin (C). Patients 18 years with locally advanced/metastatic cancer were enrolled. Doses were escalated for one 21-d (q3w; PGC d1, G d8) and three 28-d schedules (q4wA: PG d1, GC d15; q4wB: GC d1, PC d15; q4wC: PGC d1+15).
