Abstract
A prospective study was carried out to investigate the efficacy and feasibility of conducting an out-patient chemotherapeutic regime in India, in which toxic reactions would appear to be enhanced in patients with a poor nutritional status, in the presence of advanced disease. Such a regime will also overcome the limitations of hospitalization in terms of bed availability.This publication has 13 references indexed in Scilit:
