Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of the worth of corynebacterium parvum in conjunction with chemotherapy as adjuvant treatment for primary breast cancer. Eight-year results from the National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project B-10.

TL;DR: The results of that trial through 8 years of follow-up fail to indicate that treatment with CP used in conjunction with 1‐phenylalanine mustard plus 5‐fluorouracil results in a better DFS and S than that observed after chemotherapy alone.
Journal Article

Effect of Myobacterium bovis (strain Bacillus Calmette-Guérin) on macrophage production by the bone marrow of tumor-bearing mice.

TL;DR: Macrophage production by bone marrow cells is transiently enhanced by either Bacillus Calmette-Guerin or the presence of a growing tumor at a time when the effect of either has disappeared, resulting in those cells continuing to produce a significantly greater number of macrophages.
Journal ArticleDOI

A comparison of stapled and handsewn anastomoses in patients undergoing resection for Dukes' B and C colorectal cancer. An analysis of disease-free survival and survival from the NSABP prospective clinical trials.

TL;DR: The use of stapled anastomoses for carcinoma of the colon or rectum is not associated with an adverse effect on long-term outcome and no significant differences in the length of distal margins were detectable.
Journal Article

TL;DR: The incidence and size of hepatic metastases in parabionts subjected to intraportal injection of Walker tumor cells were similar to those observed in single animals receiving comparable numbers of tumor cells regardless of whether the liver of the contralateral member was manipulated or not.
