Abstract:
Studying the dynamy of immunobiological parameters after radiotherapy and estimating its prognostic values on 77 NPC patients with T1-3No-3Mo (UICC 1979) at Hanoi K hospital from 11/1994 to 12/1998. We have some results: The prognostic values have been found significantly in the quantity of leukocytes, the level of serum IgA/VCA, IgG/EBNA before radiotherapy, the frequency of HLA antigens A11, A2, B17 and the desequilibre linkage A11-B17, A2-B17. Especially, the increase of serum IgA/VCA after radiotherapy has significantly predicted recurrence of studied NPC patients
