Abstract
This study concerns 59 patients with primary and metastatic tumors of the CNS. After surgery, each patients followed a therapeutic protocol requiring Radiotherapy (5500 Rads for 6 weeks) and antiblastic monochemotherapy with CCNU (130 MG/M2/D p.o. every 8 weeks). The results were evaluated according to Wilson's (1975) criteria of response to therapy. CCNU significantly improved the survival time in comparison to the data given for conventional treatment.
