Abstract
Here we show that Doxil® has minimal antitumour activity in the isolated limb perfusion (ILP) setting and its activity was not enhanced by the addition of tumour necrosis factor (TNF). Doxil® accumulation in tumour tissue was low and also not augmented by TNF. In contrast, activity of free conventional doxorubicin was enhanced by TNF. We conclude that application of Doxil® in a TNF-based ILP is not a useful alternative to free conventional doxorubicin or melphalan.
