Abstract:
A significant delay in benz(A)pyrene-induced tumorigenesis was obtained following three series of parenteral injection of xenogenic leukocytic interferon alternating with irradiation at 3-4 day intervals. Radiation was delivered from a red low-energy laser through a puncture in the peritoneal wall of the spleen. When each of said procedures was performed separately similar effects were recorded but the changes were not significant.

Cancer Therapies
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...
