The adjuvant effect of lucanthone (miracil D) in clinical radiation therapy.

Clinical trials were undertaken to determine whether lucanthone (miracil D) affects radiation-induced regression in measurable pulmonary metastases and advanced squamous-cell oral and pharyngeal tumors. The time required for 50% tumor regression was decreased by approximately 50% in those patients who received lucanthone in addition to irradiation. These results indicate that lucanthone has a definite adjuvant effect when used together with irradiation.
