Abstract

AIOPDT using either Photofrin or m-THPC was equally effective in reducing local recurrence in this model. Since treatment time with m-THPC was only 25 s compared with 11 min with Photofrin, the use of the former new photosensitizer increases the practicality of AIOPDT and could enable the laser to be replaced with cheaper, less intense light sources.
