MeasureTime frame
Secondary study parameters 1.

Treatment success Unsuccessful completion of chemotherapeutic treatment is concluded in the presence of one of the following events: 1. Dose reduction 2. Delay of chemotherapeutic cycle 3. Cancellation of treatment because of any reason, except disease progression. 3. Biological markers: 1. Serum, inflammatory markers (CRP, interleukins) 2.
