Abstract

The objective of this study was to evaluate the antitumor activity of DHMEQ as monotherapy and in combination with cisplatin in a human ovarian cancer xenograft model. Cisplatin was used as a comparator. To create the xenograft model, human ovarian cancer cells (SKOV-3 line) were subcutaneously implanted into immunodeficient mice. The study was conducted on female SCID Beige C.B-17 Cg-Prkdcscid Lystbg/Crl mice. Antitumor activity was determined by comparing tumor growth inhibition (TGI) in the treatment groups to that in the control group. Results showed that daily intraperitoneal administration of DHMEQ at a dose of 14 mg/kg following a single intraperitoneal dose of cisplatin at 4 mg/kg reduced tumor growth in the SKOV-3 cell line xenograft model.
