A 55-year-old female with severe inflammatory breast cancer was treated with the combined use of MPA and the intraarterial infusion chemotherapy. One cycle consisted of 4'-epi-adriamycin; 210 mg (day 1, 4 and 8) and daily administration of MPA; 1,200 mg. A marked shrinkage of the tumor was obtained with this treatment. The regressive change was noted not only in the primary lesion but in lymph nodes of the axillary region. Therefore, the combined use of MPA with intra-arterial infusion chemotherapy may well contribute to the treatment of inflammatory breast cancer.
