Immunotherapy of Cancer: Regression of Intradermal Tumors and Prevention of Growth of Lymph Node Metastases After Intralesional Injection of Living Mycobacterium bovis
Abstract
Intradermal (ID) inoculation of cells of a syngeneic transplantable ascites guinea pig hepatocarcinoma led to a progressively growing 10 tumor. Tumor cells metastasized to the regional lymph node by 6–7 days after tumor implantation. Excision or irradiation of the tumor prevented tumor growth locally but did not prevent metastases from growing and killing the host. Specific immunization did not impair growth of established 10 tumors or growth of tumor in the draining lymph node. Inoculation of living bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) organisms into established 10 tumors caused local tumor regression and prevented growth of tumor cells present in the regional lymph node. Intratumor (IT) injection of BCG led to complete tumor regression in 63% of guinea pigs with tumor nodules weighing 95 mg and in 16% of guinea pigs with tumor nodules weighing 425 mg. Guinea pigs treated by IT injection of BCG developed systemic tumor immunity; some animals rejected distant artificial metastases.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
