| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to investigate the chemosensitivity of advanced non-melanoma skin cancer and melanoma,using a histoculture drug response assay(HDRA). 15 fresh tumor tissue were obtained from patients with advanced non-melanoma skin cancer and melanoma. Among 15 HDRA results, 10 patients were sensitive, and 4 patients were nonsensitive to anticancer drugs,but in only one patient,the result of the chemosensitivity was not provided because of contamination. Anticancer drug showed a good sensitivity for some tumors, and some patients were considered in complete remission.
