The Use of the Infrared Laser Therapy of 890-910 NM for the Treatment Breast Cancer (Experimental and Clinical Study)

1. Abstract

The experimental studies were conducted with Walker's carcinosarcoma n256 (from the U.S.A. bank), cancer of the mammary gland (RMK-1). Spontaneous –mice with mammary glands cancer (type B). The tasks were as follows: to study the effect of different doses LLLT on the growth of experimental tumors. Evaluation of the effectiveness by applying LLLT in combination with various chemotherapeutic agents (vincristin, 5-Fu, ciclophosphan). Research of LLLR effect on different types of tumors show that this treatment can be used for tumors-statistic effect and for increasing life-span in animals. Applying LLLR in combination with chemotherapeutic agents causes tumors-static action. The most effective combination was LLLT + vincristin which caused the inhibition of tumor growth in Walker's carcinosarcoma-by 92,87%, in RMK-1 - by 90,29% in comparing to controls. The combination of LLLT with HpD showed - the effect of laser therapy takes place in 30 min before the irradiation and is accompanied by a sharp reduction of the preparation's accumulation in the tumor cells.
