HOUSTON — The first phase
of a two-year study of the semi
synthetic drug taxotere, a close
relative of taxol, indicates the
drug has promise in treating ovar
ian and breast cancer. The Univer
sity of Texas M.D. Anderson Can
cer Center said Tuesday.
Results of the study by Dr.
Richard Pazdur, associate profes
sor of medicine at M.D. Anderson
in Houston, will be published in
Wednesday's issue of the Journal
of the National Cancer Institute.
Pazdur reports that taxotere,
which is derived from the needles
of the European yew tree, stalled
tumor growth in six of 10 ovarian
cancer patients and produced a
partial remission of breast cancer
in another patient in the first
phase of a two-year study.
Thirty-nine patients enrolled in
the clin.cal study were treated
with different levels of taxoterefi
up to 12 months. All had ai
vanced cancers including ovarian
colon, breast and uterine and prt-
vious treatments for all of the
tients had failed.
"This study seems to back
pre-clinical evidence suggestii
taxotere, like taxol, may be anti
fective anti-cancer drug/' Pazda
said.

uals disturbed him based on the
anti-discrimination focus of the fo
rum.
"They were talking about dis
crimination, and by saying that
homosexuals are sick, is a form of
discrimination."
Michelle Bolden, chair of the
Memorial Student Center Black
Awareness Committee, said there
were a lot of mixed emotions
about what was said.
"He explained his reasons
without sugar-coating them,"
Bolden said. "However, that
doesn't mean that his views are
representative of everyone."
X's comments could make it a
little harder to build the bridges of
understanding that he and other
members of the GLSS have been
trying to build for so long, Hick
man said.
"It's a two-way bridge,"Maz-
zullo said, "and I don't think that
the black faculty and students at
A&M subscribe to those homo-
phobic ideas."
Rene Henry, executive director
of University relations at A&M,
said X's remarks surprised him.
"It shocked me because it
seems that that kind of attitude is
the antithesis of what (Wilson) is
criticizing the University for."
Henry' said the University's
main message regarding the issue
of gay and lesbian students, as
well as minority students, is the
same — "(Texas A&M) won't tol
erate any sort of discrimination."
Andreadis said Wilson's han
dling of the entire issue of dis
crimination at A&M seems some-
