Abstract

Antitumor efficacy of a medical adhesive MK-8-based polymer drug composition with prospidin has been studied in 49 Wistar rats, and the kinetics of the drug elimination has been followed up in 112 rats. The findings evidence a prolongation of a relapse-free period and a longer survival of the animals. Clinical trials of the composition have been carried out. Of the 70 patients with esophageal carcinomas 52 ones had local disseminated forms, conforming to T4P3-4 indices. Application of the adhesive composition has not increased the rate of postoperative complications and in some cases considerably prolonged the life span of patients after palliative surgery.
