dc.description | In this study, we have evaluated the response
of patients submitted to immunotherapy
(IMT) with this combined vaccine
together with multidrug therapy (MDT)
during a 5- to lO-year period. Based on the
use of multiple criteria, we have been able
to analyze the diverse manifestations ofthe
immune responses in these patients, most
of whom had multibacillary disease. The
parameters evaluated included determinations
ofthe levels ofantibodies against PGLI,
lymphocyte transformation assays, bacterial
indexes and intradermal tests before
each IMT treatment and at regular intervals
for a period of at least 5 years. | |
