Photoradiation in the Treatment of Recurrent Breast Carcinoma 2

·1979·JNCI: Journal of the National Cancer Institute

Abstract

Photoradiation, with the use of hematoporphyrin derivative (Hpd) activated by visible light in the red region of the spectrum, was an effective treatment for controlling local and regional chest wall recurrences of breast carcinoma. With sufficient time between iv injection of the drug and local activation with red light, cutaneous and subcutaneous masses were treated effectively without undue damage to overlying and adjacent skin. This high therapeutic ratio resulted from the ability to Hpd to accumulate and/or to be retained to a higher degree in malignant tissue than in many normal tissues. This technique can be used as a primary treatment or upon tumor recurrence following conventional modalities such as surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy.

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.
