Description

The ability of cisplatin to potentiate radiation has been observed in in vitro and in vivo studies. There has been an anecdotal report of podyphyllins acting as a radiation sensitizer as well. Continuous infusion VP-16, bolus cisplatin, and simultaneous, hyperfractionated radiation have been combined in an effort to maximize their potential synergistic interactions
