Significant antitumor effect from bone-seeking, alpha-particle-emitting (223)Ra demonstrated in an experimental skeletal metastases model.
The therapeutic efficacy of the alpha-particle-emitting radionuclide (223)Ra (t(1/2) = 11.4 days) in the treatment against experimental skeletal metastases in rats was addressed. Biodistribution… Expand

Comparative antitumor activities of halichondrins and vinblastine against human tumor xenografts.
Halichondrin B and homohalichondrin B are novel tubulin-interacting agents isolated from marine sponges. The in vivo antitumor activities of these compounds were examined in human tumor models in… Expand

Studies on the synthesis and biological properties of non-carrier-added [(125)I and (131)I]-labeled arylalkylidenebisphosphonates: potent bone-seekers for diagnosis and therapy of malignant osseous…
Arylalkylidenebisphosphonates labeled with nca [(125)I or (131)I] have been synthesized and their biological function investigated. The label was attached to the aromatic group in high yield and… Expand

Nude rat models for human tumor metastasis to CNS
SummaryModels for hematogenous spread of human cancer to the central nervous system (CNS) were established by injecting human tumor cells into the internal carotid artery of nude rats. With 4 out of… Expand

Antitumor activity of P-4055 (elaidic acid-cytarabine) compared to cytarabine in metastatic and s.c. human tumor xenograft models.
The antineoplastic efficacy of P-4055, a 5'-elaidic acid (C18:1, unsaturated fatty acid) ester of cytarabine, a nucleoside antimetabolite frequently used in the treatment of hematological… Expand

Human osteosarcoma xenografts and their sensitivity to chemotherapy
Despite the increased survival rates of osteosarcoma patients attributed to adjuvant chemotherapy, at least one third of the patients still die due to their disease. Further improvements in the… Expand

The antitumour activity of the prodrug N-L-leucyl-doxorubicin and its parent compound doxorubicin in human tumour xenografts.
The antitumour activity of the investigational agent N-L-leucyl-doxorubicin (Leu-DOX) was compared with that of doxorubicin (DOX) in human tumour xenografts growing subcutaneously in athymic nude… Expand

Superior therapeutic efficacy of N-L-leucyl-doxorubicin versus doxorubicin in human melanoma xenografts correlates with higher tumour concentrations of free drug.
N-L-leucyl-doxorubicin (Leu-DOX), a prodrug of doxorubicin (DOX), has previously shown antitumour activity against human ovarian, breast and lung carcinomas in nude mice. In the present study, the… Expand

A study of the delivery-targeting concept applied to antineoplasic drugs active on human osteosarcoma. I. Synthesis and biological activity in nude mice carrying human osteosarcoma xenografts of…
Abstract With the aim of verifying the concept of osteotic vectorisation, synthesis of three methotrexate (MTX) gem-diphosphonic analogues (compounds A, B and C ) was performed. These molecules were… Expand

Antiproliferative Activity and Mechanism of Action of Fatty Acid Derivatives of Gemcitabine in Leukemia and Solid Tumor Cell Lines and in Human Xenografts
Gemcitabine is a deoxycytidine analog, which can be inactivated by deamination catalyzed by deoxycytidine deaminase (dCDA). Altered transport over the cell membrane is a mechanism of resistance to… Expand
