Notes: Combination of Temodar and procarbazine showed a high percentage of tumor regressions, suggesting effectiveness.
From Ben Williams Book: Temodar has also been combined with procarbazine (64). While the report of that study did not include the PFS-6 statistic, it did report an unusually high percentage of tumor regressions, suggesting that this combination might be effective.Property "Has original text" (as page type) with input value "Temodar has also been combined with procarbazine (64). While the report of that study</br>did not include the PFS-6 statistic, it did report an unusually high percentage of tumor</br>regressions, suggesting that this combination might be effective." contains invalid characters or is incomplete and therefore can cause unexpected results during a query or annotation process.
