Gene context of leucovorin

  • Twenty six patients with pleural mesothelioma of UICC stage I-IV excluding M1 disease (46% of whom had stage I disease and 38% stage III disease) were treated intravenously with high dose MTX (3 g) and calcium folinate rescue three times at intervals of 2 weeks and three times at intervals of 3 weeks [26].
