We have analyzed the results of photodynamic therapy using light-sensitizing agent "Photogem" in 72 patients - 56 women with pre-cancerous lesions of cervix and 16 women with early cervical cancer (group 1); Photosens in 47 patients - 35 women with pre-cancerous lesions (CIN III), 12 women with non-invasive cervical cancer (carcinoma in situ) (group 2); and Alasens in 22 patients - 8 women with virus-associated pre-cancerous lesions (high-grade CIN III), 14 with virus-associated early cervical cancer (carcinoma in situ, cervical cancer 1A1) (group 3). The results were as follows: group 1 - complete regression of CIN III and non-invasive cervical cancer (carcinoma in situ) was achieved in 50 (89.2%) and 11 (68.8%) cases, significant regression was achieved in 2 cases (3.6%) and in 2 cases (12.5%), stabilization was achieved in 2 cases (3.6%) and in 2 cases (12.5%), progression was achieved in 2 cases (3.6%) and in 1 case (6.2%) accordingly. In the group of patients after PDT using Photosens complete regression of CIN III and non-invasive cervical cancer (carcinoma in situ) was achieved in 33 cases (94.2%) and in 10 cases (83.4%) cases, significant regression was achieved in 1 case (2.9%) and in 1 case (8.3%), stabilization was achieved in 1 cases (2.9%) and in 1 cases (8.3%). In the group of women after surgical treatment anti-viral efficacy was assessed. It s necessary to note that not a single relapse was observed. Anti-viral effect was registered in 49 (90.4%) cases The longest HPV-free period that we observed was 5 years. 12 women with CIN III and 4 women with carcinoma in situ became pregnant.
