Abstract: The previsously described chronobiological changes that occur with cancer patients are summed up. Mostly changes of temperature were observed:Locally over the tumour dyschronism shows- the tendency of increase in temperature (mesor),- the tendency of phase-shift (acceleration) seen in slow growing tumours,- the appearance of circaseptan phases as an expression of deterioration of a circalunar rhythm,- the tendency of acceleration of frequencyseen in fast growing tumours.The chronological appearance of the whole organism shows the following dyschronism:- The circadian and circalunar core temperature deteriorates through diminishing or lack of the amplitude and through phase-shift (acceleration).- The circadian and circalunar rhythm(circatriquintan) of different blood parameters shows a phase-shift and diminishing of the amplitudes up to the complete lack of rhythm.In our own tests the days amplitude (temperature), with tumour patients before and during the therapy with immun modulating substances from Viscum album (ABNOBA-viscum$) were observed. The circadian amplitude of the temperature was mostly)r not expressed before therapy. The increase of the amplitude is a result of decreasing the morning and increasing the evening temperature.
