✦ Synopsis

Proposed in this article is a new system for the cytological grading of therapy-induced regression of prostatic carcinoma. Reversible and irreversible criteria in cytoplasm, nuclei, and nucleoli are distinguished and rated independently of each other on a scale of 0 to 2; the cellular regression grades r1-r3 are the sum of rating numbers. Criteria that are invalid for grading regression are pointed out. Results of the clinical testing of this grading system are presented.

Therapy with IL-12 or IL-2 induces tumor regression in only a few patients with head-and-neck squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), and the factors promoting responsiveness have not been well defined. In this study, we examined whether combined IL-12 and IL-2 therapy can induce tumor regression in a new mu
