Twenty-nine paitents with advanced refractory multiple myeloma were treated with intermittent high-dose dexamethasone in combination with 4-day infusions of vincristine and doxorubicin. Rapid and marked tumor-mass reduction (> 75%) was noted in 14 of 20 patients whose disease was resistant to alkylating agents and in 3 of 9 patients with additional resistance to doxorubicin, a result far superior to those in previous trials with similar patients. In responsive patients, remissions were of excellent quality; survival was significantly longer than in unresponsive patients.
