The total effect of controlled regression in the first 2 weeks of treatment was equivalent, respectively – 51,7; 70,3 and 65,5% of cases. Remote 5-year survival with subtherapeutic doses of methotrexate was significantly higher compared with the control 68,4 ± 6,7% vs 48,3 ± 7,1% (p <0,05) and equivalent to 62,8 ± 6,8% in the endolymphatic high doses of cytostatics. Mechanism of anti-tumor effect of subtherapeutic doses of cytostatic agents imposed lymph path, requires further examination.
