Antitumor immunostimulatory effect via cell-killing action of a novel extracorporeal blood circulating photodynamic therapy system using 5-aminolevulinic acid

Abstract This study investigated whether intravenous administration of tumor cells killed by photodynamic therapy (PDT) with 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) had antitumor effects on distal tumors. Furthermore, a novel extracorporeal blood circulating 5-ALA/PDT system was developed. 5-ALA/PDT- (low or...
