METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR TREATING CELL PROLIFERATION DISORDERS USING TWO-PHOTON SIMULTANEOUS ABSORPTION

摘要

A method for treating a cell proliferation disorder in a subject, comprising: (1) administering to the subject at least one activatable pharmaceutical agent that is capable of activation by a simultaneous two photon absorption event and of effecting a predetermined cellular change when activated; and (2) applying an initiation energy from an initiation energy source to the subject, wherein the initiation energy is capable of penetrating completely through the subject, and wherein the applied initiation energy activates the activatable agent by the simultaneous two photon absorption event in situ, - thus causing the predetermined cellular change to occur, wherein the predetermined cellular change treats the cell proliferation related disorder, and a kit for performing the method, a computer implemented system for performing the method, a pharmaceutical composition useful in the method and a method for causing an autovaccine effect in a subject using the method.
