Possible Interaction: Methylselenocysteine and Cpt-11

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

Methylselenocysteine (MSC, 0.2 mg/mouse per day per oral for 35 days starting 7 days before the first irinotecan (CPT-11)) has been found to increase efficacy of a wide variety of chemotherapeutic agents including CPT-11 (100 mg/kg per week x 4 intravenously).
Whereas CPT-11 leads to a 10% complete response (CR) in A253 xenografts, the combination of MSC and CPT-11 increased the CR to 70%.
