Abstract
L1210 and P388 leukemias were developed in 1948 (1) and 1955 (2), respectively. Each leukemia played an important role in both screening and detailed evaluations of candidate anticancer agents. Fifty years later, these in vivo models are still used to evaluate anticancer activity, although at a greatly reduced level. This chapter reviews their past and present role in the evaluation of anticancer drugs. Data on the sensitivity to clinically useful drugs of these two leukemias and the drug-resistant P388 sublines are reported.
