title: [A possible approach to the task of the individual choice of treatment for cancer patients].
abstract: A procedure for choosing treatment for a cancer patient is suggested. The method was developed on the basis of data of a retrospective analysis of patient characteristics, type and results of treatment. It suggests the use of a computer and is aimed at assessment of a conventional function of survival for each treatment modality, comparison of these functions and choosing optimal therapeutic regimen with regard to patient characteristics. A method for experimental testing of the above procedure that does not require clinical trials is described.
