[Combined chemoimmunotherapy in stomach cancer and hematosarcoma]

A new method was elaborated for the combined chemoimmunotherapy of cancer and hematosarcoma of the stomach by means of intratumoral submucous injection via a fiberoptic endoscope of 5-fluorouracil (or cyclophosphane) followed by general ftorafur chemotherapy (or vincristine, cyclophosphane, 5-fluorouracil) followed by general ftorafur chemotherapy (or vincristine, cyclophosphane, 5-fluorouracil), or by intratumoral submucous injection of zymosane at termination of the chemotherapy course. The material comprising 96 patients, treated by the new method and 52 control patients after general chemotherapy has proved a greater efficacy of the method of combined chemoimmunotherapy, especially in infiltrative-exophytic and perigastric recurrences of cancer of the stomach as well as in radically operated subjects.
