  • Title: Treatment of neoplasia of the bladder with topical application of a synthetic peptide complex preparation: preliminary results.
    Author: Battelli T, Bonsignori M, Lombardi R, Manocchi P, Perilli A.
    Journal: Curr Med Res Opin; 1976; 4(3):189-1. PubMed ID: 949898.
    Abstract:
    Preliminary results are reported on the endo-vesical use of a complex of synthetic peptides ('Peptichemio') in 15 patients suffering from bladder neoplasia who were judged to be beyond surgery or radiotherapy. The agent was introduced into bladder in 20 mg doses diluted in 50 ml of 5% glucose and retained for approximately 30 minutes. Treatment was repeated every 5 to 7 days. The disappearance of the neoplastic mass in 13% of the cases and its reduction in a further 53% encourage the continued use of the preparation in local regional therapy of bladder neoplasia, and the findings help to establish treatment times and doses. For the moment, the authors recommend increasing the interval between treatments to 10 days or more once the neoplastic mass has been reduced or disappeared.
