title: [Tumor growth index as an integral criterion for the efficacy of antineoplastic therapy under experimental conditions].
abstract: An additional criterion is suggested for description of effectiveness of therapy of experimental tumors--tumor growth index. It is a ratio of area covered by the kinetic curve of tumor growth in the study group and that in control. The index is intended to describe the efficacy of therapy in terms of degree and duration of the effect.
