Abstract
The role of cisplatin in current [human] cancer chemotherapy is illustrated. This new agent is increasingly utilized in 1st line regimens for a variety of tumor types, notably testicular, head and neck and bladder cancer. Large scale investigations are evaluating these regimens in combined modality approaches to early stages of these diseases.
