A significant decrease in the number of metastasis was obtained. In another study, ozone was applied intraperitoneally, before Lewis' lung carcinoma inoculation. A delayed effect in the tumor development kinetics and in the increase rate of tumor volume in the ozone groups was observed. With regard to the clinical trial, patients with prostatic cancer were treated with cobalt-60 therapy and ozone (rectally), decreasing the presence of side effects (due to radiation treatment) and the prostatic specific antigen figures. However, further investigations are necessary to be performed, in order to be considered the ozone therapy as complementary therapy for cancer.", pages = "398-404(7)", url = "http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/tandf/bose/2008/00000030/00000006/art00003" doi = "doi:10.1080/01919510802473724" }
