  • ECOG Performance Status is 0-2
  • At least one measurable lesion in two dimensions by means of CT scan
  • No brain metastases
  • No prior chemotherapy for this malignancy,
  • Acceptable hematological profile (as defined by a leukocyte count ≥ 3000/mm3, a platelet count ≥ 100.000mm3 and Hb ≥ 9g/100mL), and adequate renal function (as defined by serum creatinine ≤ 1.5mg/dl or creatinine clearance measured in 24 hours urine ≥ 60 mL/min), and hepatic function (as defined by bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x maximum normal value even with hepatic metastasis; transaminases (ALT, AST) ≤ 2.5 x maximum normal value; alkaline phosphatase ≤ 2.5 x maximum normal value, except in case of a bone metastasis)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Presence of other tumours different from basal cell carcinoma of the skin, with disease free survival less then 3 years.
  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding. In women of childbearing potential and in men, an adequate contraceptive method must be used
  • Social or psychological condition that render the patient inadequate for the follow-up of the study
  • Contraindication for any of the study drugs (e.g. history of hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients of the study drugs)
