ERRATUM: AACR: Paclitaxel Carboplatin Combination Therapy Might Be as Effective as Mitoxantrone Alone for Patients With Hormone-Refractory Prostate Cancer There was an error in a recent article from our coverage of the American Association for Cancer Research 95th Annual Meeting. The original text read: ORLANDO, FL -- April 1, 2004 -- Preliminary results of a phase 2 study suggest that a paclitaxel/carboplatin combination may be as effective as taxotere alone for patients with hormone refractory prostate cancer, researchers reported in a poster session here at the American Association for Cancer Research 95th Annual Meeting. "The major finding of our study is that hormone resistant prostate cancer must not be considered any more as chemoresistant," said presenter Philippe Chollet, MD, Centre Jean Perrin, Clermont-Ferrand, France. "Taxol carboplatin is a good and effective combination as taxotere alone is. In addition, prostate cancer must be treated in the same way as breast cancer." The corrected text now reads: ORLANDO, FL -- April 1, 2004 -- Preliminary results of a phase 2 study suggest that a paclitaxel plus carboplatin combination may be as effective as mitoxantrone alone for patients with hormone refractory prostate cancer, researchers reported in a poster session here at the American Association for Cancer Research 95th Annual Meeting. "The major finding of our study is that hormone resistant prostate cancer must not be considered any more as chemoresistant," said presenter Philippe Chollet, MD, Centre Jean Perrin, Clermont-Ferrand, France. "Taxol carboplatin is a good and effective combination as mitoxantrone alone is. In addition, prostate cancer must be treated in the same way as breast cancer."
