Abstract:
The data are presented on polychemotherapy given to 17 children with advanced refractory malignant tumors using whole body hyperthermia and hyperglycemia. All patients suffered tumor progression throughout treatment and afterwards. Adjuvant Roncoleukin (interleukin-2) was administered in 5. Such salvage therapy was followed by overall tumor regression in 29.3%. Overall 4-year survival in such cases was 19%. Immunological monitoring of adjuvant whole body hyperthermia and interleukin-2 was carried out.
