Popis: An effective treatment schedule with bleomycin in combination with mitomycin and a new effective area in treatment with neocarzinostatin was introduced. Studies on more useful derivatives or analogues of bleomycin and anthracycline antitumor antibiotics were described. Bleomycin PEP thus selected may become a useful agent. Aclacinomycin and various other anthracycline glycosides were isolated from beer fermentation and tested. Future progress in microbiol secondary metabolites useful in cancer treatment was discussed.
