A member asked:

Is matulane (procarbazine) just for treating lymphomas?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Procarbazine is: The generic name, it is an old drug, it was one ofthe "p's" in the mopp regimen for hodgkin's lymphoma. The other "p" is prednisone, and now "platinum". Pcz was also used in brain tumors at one time, but rarely if ever any more. I hope this helps.
