METHOD FOR TREATING ONCOLOGICAL PATIENTS WITH VAGINAL TUMOR LESION Russian patent published in 2006 - IPC A61K31/522 A61K31/10 A61N5/10 A61P35/00 

FIELD: medicine, oncology.

SUBSTANCE: one should carry out chemoradiation therapy at applying a cytostatic preparation followed by distance and intracavitary irradiation. Depending upon development of tumor lesion during the first 3 or 6 d it is necessary to conduct monochemotherapy only due to introducing proxiphen together with dimethyl sulfoxide at weight ratio of 4.5-5.0 : 0.5-1.5, correspondingly by applications in "Coletex" napkins. Moreover, a napkin should be pre-impregnated in 20%-dimethylsulfoxide solution and fixed with a tough vaginal tamponade by changing napkins every 24 h. Then since the 4^th d or the 7^th d simultaneously with application it is necessary to carry out contact irradiation and distance impact onto minor pelvis every 4-6 h at single focal dosage (SFD) being 2 Gy at 10 seances 5 times/weekly with high-activity sources of SFD 2 Gy. The innovation provides tumor regress under conditions of no therapeutic complications, thus, improving patients' quality of life.

EFFECT: higher therapy.
