    Author: Roeslin N, Lang JM, Morand G, Wihlm JM, Witz JP.
    Journal: Cancer Immunol Immunother; 1982; 13(3):174-5. PubMed ID: 6925982.
    Abstract:
    Patients with resectable squamous cell carcinoma were randomly allocated after surgery to receive either no further treatment (57 patients) or a single intrapleural injection of BCG (61 patients). No significant improvement in survival was observed in patients treated with BCG, even when their disease was staged as N0. There was a slight trend for the recurrence rate to be lower in patients classed as N0, but this was not significant.
