Accumulation of protoporphyrin IX in the tumor occurs within 3-6 hours after administration of Alasens® solution inside and 1-3 hours after instillation. Then, the level of protoporphyrin IX in the tumor gradually decreases, reaching the baseline values ββin 24-48 hours after taking the drug. After 3-6 hours after taking Alasens® inside, an increased content of protoporphyrin IX in the blood and its metabolites in the urine of patients is recorded, which reaches the maximum values ββ6-9 hours after taking the drug. After 48 hours, the levels of protoporphyrin IX in the blood and its metabolites in urine return to the original levels. During 48 hours after administration of Alasens® solution as instillation, in the vast majority of patients there is no increase in the concentration of protoporphyrin IX and its metabolites in blood plasma and urine.In rare cases, it is possible to increase them within 3-9 hours after instalation of Alasens®. After taking Alasens® solution inside, the increased content of protoporphyrin IX in healthy skin can be registered within 24 hours, which can lead to phototoxic reactions (redness of the skin, swelling of the pigmentation) in case of non-observance of the light regime (protection of exposed skin from direct sunlight). After taking the drug in the form of instillation, the level of protoporphyrin IX in healthy skin does not increase.
