Antitumor activity of sodium phenylbutyrate was studied on 120 outbred female mice with transplanted Ehrlich ascites carcinoma. The animals received the drug in doses of 400, 800, and 1200 mg/kg with drinking water daily for 21 days. The antitumor effect was evaluated by tumor growth inhibition and lifespan prolongation. Phenylbutyrate in the dose of 800 mg/kg was most effective. The drug inhibited the tumor growth by 71%, prolonged the lifespan of animals by 28, and was low-toxic.
Продолжается поиск новых противоопухолевых препаратов с высокой эффективностью и низким токсическим профилем. Одним из перспективных классов противоопухолевых агентов, отвечающих этим требованиям, являются ингибиторы деацетилазы гистонов (HDAC), в частности фенилбутират натрия (ФБ). Цель исследования-изучение дозовой и временной зависимости противоопухолевой активности и переносимости при пролонгированном пероральном введении ФБ в сочетании с 5-фторурацилом (5-ФУ) на модели карциномы Эрлиха.
