Platinum Coordination Complexes in Cancer Chemotherapy

The symposium which took place at the Wadley Institutes of Molecular Medicine in Dallas, Texas, embraced a wide range of scientific disciplines from platinum metal chemistry through to clinical practice and was attended by over one hundred and fifty delegates of equally diverse backgrounds. The first two days of the meeting were largely concerned with the more fundamental aspects of platinum compounds and their biological activity, while the final day was devoted to reports of clinical efficacy and protocols.
