Antitumor Effect of 5-Aminolevulinic Acid Methyl Ester-Mediated Photodynamic Therapy on Local Skin Melanoma and Its Metastasized Tumor, in Relation with Antitumor Immunity
ALA-Me-PDT had significant inhibitory effects both on local tumor growth and distant lung metastasis of melanoma. There was also significant antitumor immunity caused by ALA-Me-PDT. Results of the present study provide a potential possibility for ALA-Me-PDT in the treatment of skin melanoma and its metastasis.
