Comparative efficiency of conventional myelosuppressive chemotherapy and therapy including interferon alpha in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia
2004
: We compared efficacy of conventional myelosuppressive chemotherapy with myelosan, hydrealitalir and interferon-alpha (Ifn-a) therapy in 52 patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). The latter treatment (Ifn-a was given in different doses) was conducted in 23 patients. Significant differences (p = 0.007) were found in medians of survival of patients on conventional myelosuppressive chemotherapy (40 months) and on Ifn-a therapy (61 months). Toxicity of treatment with Ifn-a (domestic reaferon, in particular) was mild. Thus, Ifn-a treatment was more effective than conventional myelosuppressive therapy against CML in a chronic phase.
