The results of a comparison of survival rates for 156 cases of recurrent and disseminated breast cancer treated by different schemes of chemotherapy are presented. The survival rates for cases with apparent therapeutic effect were significantly higher than in those without such effect. Statistical methods of kinetic evaluation of treatment effectiveness failed to establish a significant difference in survival rates for patients given combination chemotherapy and those treated by standard procedures.
