title: [Effect of transfer factor on the immunity state of patients with bronchopulmonary cancer. A report on 12 cases (author's transl)].
abstract: The dialysate of an extract of leucocytes having transfer factor (TF) activity was administered, at a daily dose of 1 mg/ml of orcinol-sulphuric positive material, by intramuscular injection to 12 patients with bronchopulmonary cancer for 6 days. An increase in the percentage of E-rosettes and the absolute number of T lymphocytes was observed in 7 cases out of 10. Rapid healing of a widespread intercurrent zona and a regin of B.C.G. scarification reaction was also noted. The TF was well tolerated in most cases.
