This therapy allowed the dosing of patients with up to 15,000 centigray of radiation energy, which is approximately a three-fold increase in the maximum safe dose that can be given by external beam radiation alone. Although these patients received doses of only one-third to one-half of the newly established dose of 15,000 centigray (cGy), all five patients demonstrated stabilization of their disease (one patient for thirty days, four patients for greater than sixty days).
