Paper Abstract
Various different photosensitizers were compared to Photofrin® II with respect to their potential for causing direct tumor cell inactivation and/or vascular damage. GaCl-phthalocyanine of mixed sulfonation, while being 10 x more efficient than Photofrin® II in tumor cell inactivation, caused equal vascular photosensitization. Monosulfonated AlC1-phthalocyanine, on the other hand, was sparing to the vasculature, while still exhibiting good tumor cell effects. Large differences in vascular photosensitization were also observed with tetra- and monosulfonated tetraphenylporphines.
