[Effect of a combination therapy of cisplatin and local irradiation on a mouse fibrosarcoma].

Abstract

The authors applied the method of regrowth delay in order to investigate the effect of a therapy combination consisting of cis-platinum and irradiation on the fibrosarcoma SSK2 in C3H mice. An independent addition of the effects of both therapy modalities was found. It could be shown especially that no elective radiosensitization of hypoxic tumor cells is caused by cis-platinum.
