Material I've come accross when researching cancer patients standard chemotherapy

Things I discovered when exploring cancer patients standard chemotherapy.

Clinical trials of Eloxatin have produced encouraging results with patients who fail to respond to the standard 5-fluorouracil and leucovorin chemotherapy combination. [1]

..., reviewed existing research on brain function ("cognitive" functioning) in breast cancer patients who received standard doses of chemotherapy for at least six months. [2]

Armstrong of Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center in Baltimore and her colleagues gave 210 cancer patients standard with two drugs, cisplatin and paclitaxel. [3]
