Abstract: A method and apparatus for the treatment of autoimmune diseases and allergy (hypersensitivity of immediate type). The apparatus ulitizes an absorption system to absorb interferon from whole blood, from plasma, or from plasma with leukocytes. When plasma or plasma with leukocytes is to be treated, the apparatus includes a separator for separating the plasma or plasma with keukocytes from the whole blood. Preferably, the separator also separates lymphocytes from the whole blood. Blood from a patient's circulation system is pumped either directly to an absorbent system or to the separator and then to the absorbent system. The absorbent system includes a sorbent that is designed to selectively absorb interferon from the blood, the plasma, or the plasma with leukocytes. Alternatively, the absorbent system utilizes a combined sorbent having a first component that absorbs interferon and a second component that abosrbs or removes antoantibodies.

Abstract: The passage of human urine through a bed of adsorbent material results in the adsorption from the urine of antineoplastic substances as determined by in vitro tissue culture techniques utilizing human tumor cells. The adsorbent yields two antineoplastic fractions upon sequential elution. Elution of the low-molecular weight antineoplastic fraction is accomplished by elution with cold aqueous acetone at slightly alkaline pH. Thereafter, elution of the high molecular weight antineoplastic fraction is accomplished by elution with a cold aqueous acetone-glycerol mixture at slightly alkaline pH.The antineoplastic activities of these fractions are determined by tissue culture techniques employing a variety of human neoplastic cells. Furthermore, the high molecular weight fraction, the antineoplastic urinary protein, also inhibits the progression and causes regression of certain human tumor cells implanted in the nude mouse.
