چکیده
Though the selection and administration of cytotoxic drugs is usually restricted to specialist units, all doctors should be aware of both the available treatment and its associated problems. This review concerns new cytotoxic drugs and some new applications of current drugs. It is largely confined to drugs marketed in the United Kingdom in the past five years and drugs from abroad that are currently used in the United Kingdom, although some mention is made of those still undergoing clinical trial which may be more widely used in the future. Many new drugs are analogues: they are the product of a search for a compound related to an existing cytotoxic drug that will retain or surpass its efficacy with a simultaneous reduction in toxicity.
