Human leukocyte interferon in the treatment of varicella in children with cancer: a preliminary controlled trial.

Abstract

Eighteen patients who developed varicella while being treated for malignancy received human leukocyte interferon in a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial. Complications of varicella occurred in six of nine placebo recipients, but in only two of nine interferon recipients. Interferon was tolerated without significant side effects.
