Intratumoral Therapy I: Association of Immunotherapy with Permanent Long Term Cure of Metastatic Cancer

We have demonstrated in a randomized prospective study the superiority of intratumoral (intralesional) dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB) compared to intratumoral (intralesional) bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) in the treatment of progressive metastatic melanoma. The metastatic melanoma was in the form of satellitosis and/or in-transit metastases. We now demonstrate the ability of intralesional DNCB to permanently cure a selected group of patients with the same clinical criteria, and describe their clinical characteristics and treatment regimens. The described cured patients were followed for their remaining lifetimes, for up to 30 years, after being immunotherapeutically rendered free of metastatic cancer. They were each female, between the ages of 51 and 56 when i... view more»
