A method of treating a pediatric cancerous solid tumor in a mammalian subject is disclosed that comprises intralesionally administering an amount of a halogenated xanthene or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, preferably Rose Bengal disodium, that elicits ablation of tumor cells of the administered tumor. Another contemplated method comprises the steps of intralesionally administering an amount of a halogenated xanthene or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, preferably Rose Bengal disodium, that elicits ablation of tumor cells of the administered tumor and systemically administering a tumor-inhibiting effective amount of a systemic anti-cancer medication that provides synergistic cytotoxicity with the halogenated xanthene. The two administrations can occur concurrently, or one prior to the other.

A method of treating a mammalian subject having hematologic, non-tumorous cancer cells is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of: (A) administering to such a mammalian subject a therapeutically effective amount of a halogenated xanthene, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or a C-Calkyl ester thereof as a first cancer cytotoxic agent dissolved or dispersed in a pharmaceutically acceptable aqueous medium. The mammalian subject is maintained for a period of time sufficient to induce death of hematologic, non-tumorous cancer cells. A contemplated administration is typically repeated. A contemplated treatment method can also be carried out in conjunction with administration to said mammalian subject of a second therapeutically effective amount of a second, differently-acting cancer cytotoxic agent dissolved or dispersed in a pharmaceutically acceptable medium. The second cancer cytotoxic agent can be a small molecule or an intact antibody or paratope-containing portion thereof.
