Photodynamic Therapy for Cancer: What's Past is Prologue
Open accessAbstract
Thomas J Dougherty from Roswell Park Cancer Center played a major role in the progress of photodynamic therapy (PDT) from a laboratory science into a real‐world clinical therapy to treat patients with cancer. Nevertheless over the succeeding 45 years, it is fair to say that the overall progress of clinical PDT for cancer has been somewhat disappointing. The goal of this perspective article is to summarize some of the clinical trials run by various companies using photosensitizers with different structures that have been conducted for different types of cancer. While some have been successful, others have failed, and several are now ongoing. I will attempt to touch on some factors, which have influenced this checkered history and look forward to the future of clinical PDT for cancer.

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.
