Abstract
A composition containing an antiviral and an antitumor agent is useful when topically applied for the treatment of tumors and cancers, particularly for the treatment of viral or cancerous skin disorders and skin manifestations thereof. Interferon is usefully employed in these compositions in combination with the antitumor agent. Antitumor agents which are useful include interleukin, such as Interleukin II, tumor necrosis factor (TNF), target cell lysis factor (TCLF) and carcino-breaking factor (CBF). These compositions are especially usefully applied by topical application to the skin manifestation of the viral or cancerous skin disorder.
