Therapeutic potentialities of various types of polyradiomodification were compared in experiments on mice with solid Ehrlich carcinoma by using separate and combined use of short-term hyperglycemia (SH) and local hyperthermia (HT). In the combination of modifiers SH was always created 3 h after the beginning of glucose administration. Irradiation of tumors was performed in either of 5 moments: 4 h or immediately before SH, in-between SH and HT, 30 min. or 2.5 h after SH. Two control schemes, in which irradiation was combined with one of the modifiers only, corresponded to each polyradiomodification regimen. The combined use of SH and HT produced a more noticeable effect than their separate action. A maximum effect on a tumor was observed in the combined use of both modalities shortly after irradiation, and it was not accompanied by enhanced skin radiation injury in a tumor growth zone. Irradiation after or in-between SH and TH resulted in enhanced skin radiation reactions. Thus, the highest therapeutic effect was noted in those schemes of polyradiomodification in which SH and HT followed radiation treatment. SH and HT induced suppression of the blood supply in tumors played an important role in the optimization of the combined use of SH and HT with irradiation.
