COMBINATION THERAPY COMPRISING A LIPOSOMAL PRODRUG OF MITOMYCIN C AND RADIOTHERAPY

摘要

A method of treating neoplasia in a subject in need of treatment is provided by administering to the subject an amount of a prodrug of mitomycin C that yields a therapeutically effective amount of mitomycin C, in combination with radiation therapy. In one embodiment, the prodrug of mitomycin C is a liposomal-prodrug of mitomycin C. Together, the prodrug of mitomycin C and radiation therapy provide a synergistic antineoplastic effect.
