“In cancerpatients of Phase I study, DMXAA alsoexhibited various biological effects,including induction of TNF-α, serotonin and NO, which are consistent withthose effects observed in in vitroand animal studies.”
“This study demonstrates that 5-HT and/or bioreductive drugs can improve the therapeutic activity of DMXAA in mice, and that with SN 23816 both approaches can be used together to provide considerably enhanced anti-tumour activity.”
“… 5-HT (700 micromol kg(-… marked enhancement of DMXAA effects against MDAH-MCa-4 tumours, with dose-modifying factors (DMFs) of >3 for blood flow inhibition (at 4 h), … 12 h) and 2.0 for growth delay, without compromising the maximum tolerated dose of DMXAA (90 micromol kg(-1)).”
