Abstract The purpose of the present study was to examine the effect of O6-benzylguanine (O6-BG) on the antitumour activity and toxicity of 8-carbamoyl-3-methylimidazo [5, 1-d ] -1,2,3,5-tetrazine-4(3H)-one (temo-zolomide) in a human malignant melanoma xenograft model following single and multiple administration of the combination. O6-BG irreversibly inactivates the DNA-repair protein O6-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (AGT), which confers resistance to temozolomide. Preadministration of O6-BG… CONTINUE READING
