The International Society of Chemotherapy meets every two years to
review progress in chemotherapy of infections and of malignant
disease. Each meeting gets larger to encompass the extension of
chemotherapy into new areas. In some instances, expansion has been
rapid, for example in cephalosporins, pen icillins and combination
chemotherapy of cancer - in others slow, as in the field of
parasitology. New problems of resistance and untoward effects
arise; reduction of host toxicity without loss of antitumour
activity by new substances occupies wide attention. The improved
results with cancer chemotherapy, es pecially in leukaemias, are
leading to a greater prevalence of severe infection in patients so
treated, pharmacokinetics of drugs in normal and diseased subjects
is receiving increasing attention along with related problems of
bioavailability and interactions between drugs. Meanwhile the
attack on some of the major bacterial infections, such as
gonorrhoea and tubercu losis, which were among the first infections
to feel the impact of chemotherapy, still continue to be major
world problems and are now under attack with new agents and new
methods. From this wide field and the 1,000 papers read at the
Congress we have produced Proceedings which reflect the variety and
vigour of research in this important field of medicine. It was not
possible to include all of the papers presented at the Congress but
we have attempted to include most aspects of cur rent progress in
chemotherapy.
