title: [Treatment of solid tumours by intratumoral injection of immunostimulants].
abstract: Intra-lesional injections of immunostimulants--BCG or Corynebacterium parpum--induced a local cure of the McFiFj2(S) tumour and a remote therapeutic effect. When applied to rats multigrafted with the McFiFi2(S) tumour, local and distant cures were obtained in some situations. This indicates the likely intervention of a specific immune mechanism. Quantilating the pulmonary metastasis in combination with local treatment of Lewis mouse tumours showed that BCG plus C. parvum injected into the tumour and followed by surgical resection was more efficient than either of these individual or otherwise associated antitumoural procedures.
