| Research Abstract |
It was able to gather rays of light from LED using lens and photodynamic therapy using LED plus lens killed malignant mesothelioma cells. Moreover, combination treatment, consisting of pemetrexed followed by NPe6-PDT, should be further investigated as a new treatment modality for malignant pleural mesothelioma. In the future, this combination treatment, PDT using LED plus lens and pemetrexed, may contribute to a reduction in local recurrence and a prolonged survival period in patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma.
