The recent advances have made it possible for chemotherapy to be used for cancer control under the conditions of out-patient clinics. Within 5 years, 9,000 out-patients had received at the Center 10-day courses of chemotherapy which was free from toxic complications and produced a therapeutic effect similar to that observed in in-patients. The out-patient chemotherapy service saved 177,140 in-patient/days which is an equivalent of running a 500 bed specialized cancer hospital during 12 months. |
