Resumen

Se estudian 138 pacientes afectos de carcinoma pulmonar metastásico en su aspecto inmunológico.

Los estudios in vitro e in vivo de la inmunidad celular ponen de manifiesto que existe correlación entre una buena respuesta a la quimioterapia y la existencia de una respuesta inmune positiva frente a los parámetros estudiados en este grupo de enfermos. El 84,3% de enfermos que mejoraron clínicamente tenían respuestas inmunes positivas, mientras que únicamente 12,7% con respuestas inmunológicas favorables remitieron clínicamente.

Summary

The authors study the cases of 138 patients affected with metastasic lung cáncer in their immunological aspects.

Studies in vitro and in vivo of the cellular immunity show that a correlation exists between a good response to chemotherapy and the existence of a positive immune respone to the parameters studied in this group of patients. Of the patients that improved clinically, 84.3% had positive immune responses, while only 12.7% with favorable immunological responses showed clinical remission.
