Summary

To determine the toxicity and response to treatment with cytotoxic chemotherapy using doxorubicin (Adriamycin), bleomycin, and vincristine (DBV) for advanced AIDS-related Kaposi's sarcoma in combination with either didanosine (ddI) or zalcitabine (dideoxycytidine; ddC).

AIDS patients with extensive Kaposi's sarcoma require treatment with effective cytotoxic agents to reduce the tumor burden, and they also require treatment with other possibly effective antiretroviral agents such as ddI or ddC to ameliorate (delay) the development of opportunistic infections.
