Abstract

Objective: Current standard therapy for advanced or recurrent cervical cancer is combination chemotherapy with paclitaxel or topotecan based on cisplatin chemotherapy. However, this combination chemotherapy shows only a 27%~36% response rate. Therefore, there have been many efforts to discover other combination therapeutic agents for cervical cancer. Tetraarsenic oxide (TAO) showed the possibility of therapeutic effect in previous in vitro and in vivo studies with cervical cancer cell lines. The purpose of this study was to investigate the anticancer effect of TAO in an in vivo study using a patient-derived xenograft (PDX) mouse model and to reveal the mechanisms of TAO acting on tumor cells.
