RESUMO
Basing on analysis of own material (84 patients) and data of literature there was established, that vascular invasion by pancreatic tumors constitutes the main obstacle for conduction of the patients' radical treatment. Early diagnosis permits radical resectability of the patients, what constitutes the only one effective method of treatment. In vascular invasion by tumor a surgeon experience and professional preparation determines possibility of the extended operation performance with intervention on affected main vessel, enhancing the treatment radicalism.

Remote results of surgical treatment of patients, suffering locally spread forms of pancreatic malignancies (PM), using different approaches, were analyzed. In retrospective investigation were included 84 patients with PM and invasion of the main vessels. In the group Ð patients palliative operations were performed, including in a subgroup Ðа cryoablation of PM, in a subgroup Ðb palliative pancreatic resection with leaving the tumor on the main vessels intact; and in patients of group ÐÐ the tumor was resected radically, including in a sub* group ÐÐаpancreatic resection or total pancreatectomy with resection of the main vessels, and in subgroup ÐÐb pancreatic resection or total pancreatectomy with cryoablation of tumor, which was left on the main vessel. The oneyear, threeyears and fiveyears survival indices have constituted in a subgroup Ðа, accordingly 74, 17 and 0% (survival median 16 mo); in a subgroup Ðb 70, 20 and 0% (survival median 20 mo); in a subgroup ÐÐа 83, 49 and 21% (survival median 29 mo); in a subgroup ÐÐb 73, 41 and 18% (survival median 26 mo). Difference between the general survival indices in subgroups Ðа and ÐÐа, Ðb and ÐÐа is statistically significant. Application of aggressive surgical tactics have permitted to improve the general survival indices of the patients.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of Ukrain in the treatment of pancreatic cancer. Most patients with advanced pancreas cancer experience pain and have to limit their daily activities because of tumor-related symptoms. Currently, there is no satisfactory treatment for pancreas cancer. The 12-month survival rate is approximately 18% for patients treated with gemcitabine and only around 2% for those treated with 5-fluorouracil. Between January 1, 1996 and December 31, 1999 42 patients with advanced symptomatic pancreas cancer were randomly assigned to receive either vitamin C (5.4 g every second day, repeated 10 times) and Ukrain (10 mg every second day, repeated 10 times) (21 patients), or vitamin C (5.4 g every second day x 10) and normal saline (10 ml) (control group, 21 patients). The primary measure of efficacy was overall survival. Other evaluation criteria included change in body weight, pain intensity (measured by analgesic consumption) and Kamofsky performance status. The one-year survival was 81% in the Ukrain group compared with 14% in the control group. The 2-year survival was 43% in the Ukrain group compared with 5% in the control group. In a recent study of 126 patients treated with gemcitabine or 5-fluorouracil, none of the patients survived beyond 19 months. The longest survival in the Ukrain group was 54 months after the start of therapy (from March 1996 to date). The last follow-up of other patients was on September 6, 2000. Median survival was 17.17 months for Ukrain-treated patients and 6.97 months for the control group and mean survival was 21.86 and 8.92 months for the Ukrain and control groups, respectively (p = 0.001). Ukrain treatment was well tolerated. We conclude that Ukrain prolongs survival of pancreas cancer patients. To determine whether and to what extent this drug can be used as standard therapy in pancreas cancer, a phase III study should be carried out.

A 50-year-old female patient with breast cancer (stage IV) was treated with Ukrain because of the impossibility of radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The first course led to a subjective improvement in her general condition, objective changes such as the appearance of border between the tumor and healthy tissues and a decrease in tumor size. Ukrain facilitated the surgeon in performing an operation to remove the primary tumor as well as the metastatic lymph nodes. After the second and third courses of Ukrain, the patient demonstrated clinical remission.

A 23-year-old woman, diagnosed with a synovial sarcoma of the peritoneum, underwent an operation for tumor extraction. In the postoperative period, Ukrain was injected i.v. at a dose of 10 mg on alternate days, for a total of 10 injections. After a 2-month break, this schedule was repeated. Ukrain treatment was well tolerated by the patient and there were no complications in the postoperative period. The following changes in immunohematological parameters were observed: increased total leucocytes, T lymphocytes and T helpers. Nearly 4 years after Ukrain therapy, the patient is in complete remission.

Cells of ascitic forms of Ehrlich's carcinoma and sarcoma 37 transplanted into C57BI/6 mice were used to study the influence of glucose, succinate, and pH of the medium on the cytotoxic activity of the preparation Ukrain. Viability of cells was estimated by the method of intravital staining with tripan blue after the incubation of cell suspension in the presence of the preparation (1.05 x 10(-5) mol and 1.69 x 10(-4) mol). It was established that glucose (5 mmol) reduces the cytotoxic activity of Ukrain, while succinate (5 mmol) increases it. The activity of the preparation was practically absent at pH 6.1-6.7 of the incubation medium and was at a maximum at pH 7.3-8.0. A temperature of 41.5 degrees C has no influence on the effectiveness of Ukrain.

In our in-vitro experiments on the addition of Ukrain into an incubation solution of intact rat liver-cell homogenate, it was indicated that the effect of Ukrain depends on the metabolic redox chain. The endogenous respiration rate which is supported by ionic solution of incubation only, with Ukrain addition submits to a 25% decline. At the same time Ukrain stimulates NADP-dependent oxidation. Since the oxygen consumption increase under Ukrain's influence is characteristic of the metabolic state 4 of Chance (1956), it could be explained as a protonophoric effect (6). The data obtained indicate a complex mechanism of Ukrain's influence on the processes basic for the living organism, the breakage of which always leads to the pathological changes.
