摘要
Eighteen patients who developed varicella while being treated for malignancy received human leukocyte interferon in a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial. Complications of varicella occurred in 6 of 9 placebo recipients, but in only 2 of 9 interferon recipients. Interferon was tolerated without significant side effects.
