A method of treating a pediatric cancerous solid tumor in a mammalian subject is disclosed that comprises intralesionally administering an amount of a halogenated xanthene or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, preferably Rose Bengal disodium, that elicits ablation of tumor cells of the administered tumor. Another contemplated method comprises the steps of intralesionally administering an amount of a halogenated xanthene or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, preferably Rose Bengal disodium, that elicits ablation of tumor cells of the administered tumor and systemically administering a tumor-inhibiting effective amount of a systemic anti-cancer medication that provides synergistic cytotoxicity with the halogenated xanthene. The two administrations can occur concurrently, or one prior to the other.
本发明公开了一种治疗哺乳动物小儿癌症实体瘤的方法,该方法包括腔内给药一定量的卤代呫吨或其药学上可接受的盐,优选玫瑰孟加拉
钠,以引起给药肿瘤细胞的消融。另一种可考虑的方法包括以下步骤:离子内给药一定量的卤化呫吨或其药学上可接受的盐(最好是玫瑰孟加拉
钠),以引起给药肿瘤的肿瘤细胞消融;全身给药有效量的全身抗癌药物,以提供与卤化呫吨协同的细胞毒性。这两种给药可以同时进行,也可以先后进行。
