RHPS4 (15 mg/kg, iv, 15 days) treatment produces a marked inhibition of tumor weight (tumor weight inhibition [TWI] about 80%; P < 0.001) in a very short time, and this effect persists for at least 30 days. A complete tumor response is observed in 80% of mice, and 40% are cured.
In all the other tumor xenografts, RHPS4 treatment produces about 50% (P < 0.001) TWI at the nadir of the effect and, more important, results in a delay of tumor growth of about 15 (M14 and PC3) and 10 (HT29 and H460) days.
Medlife has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Animal Model: |
CD-1 male nude (nu/nu) mice, 6–8 weeks old and weighing 22-24 g (H460, CG5 and HT29, PC3 and M14 cancer models). |
Dosage: |
15 mg/kg. |
Administration: |
IV, daily for 15 consecutive days. |
Result: |
Active as a single agent on all the tumors analyzed. CG5 breast xenografts resulted in the most sensitive tumor. |
