I thought you would like the study or rather anaylsis since it does come up frequently, which to do, and does shed some light on some aspects. Easy to loose tract here with the A's and B's, and noted several things that stood out to me, that weekly infusions may be as good, maybe not so good in certain aspects.

Myelosupression more common in goup B, while grade lll-IV mucocitis was higher in froup A, grade l-ll was higher in group B.

Probability of Overall Survival. One, two year, and three year probabilty of survival were A 75% and B 65%, A 63% B 56% in two years, an A 63% and B 53% in three years, respectfully.

During follow-up period, 11 and 5 patients experienced relapse of disease in goups A 11 and and B 5.

4 patients in group A expeienced systemtic relapse and 7 in Group B

But our study suggested weekly cisplatin was as effective but not less toxic regimen than high dose Cisplatin, and then goes on to say, however............

This does seems kind of flawed with a lot of howevers lol. I don't know about any other studes or comparisons off hand. Just from this, I don't know which one I would do. Flip a coin, more likley go with what my doctor says.

Next is Carboplatun vs. Cisplatin lol. I do have one if you want.
