Abstract
Conclusions
1. The oral administration of desiccated mucosa of the stomach and small intestine and of desiccated pancreas of the hog, or of mixtures of most of the fresh organs of newly born rabbits was without effect upon 2 patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia. 2. Daily transfusions of the plasma and of the whole blood of normal individuals were without effect upon the total or differential white blood cell counts of a third patient with chronic myelogenous leukemia. 3. No support for the idea that chronic myelogenous leukemia is a deficiency disease was obtained from these observations.
