Abstract

Development of antitumor drugs. Modern cancer chemotherapy dates from 1946, when the first clinical reports were published by Haddow et al. on the therapeutic effect of urethane in myeloid leukemia and on nitrogen mustard in Hodgkin’s disease, chronic leukemia, and lymphoreticulosarcoma (Gilman and Philips, 1946; Goodman et al., 1946; Rhoads, 1946). Hormone treatment1 was started at about the same time (Huggins and Hodges, 1941).
