Research Abstract

TNP-470 is expected as a new type of anticancer drug which prevents tumor neovascularization by acting as angiogenesis inhibitor. We attempted to evaluate anticancer effect of intermittent repetitive intraportal injection of TNP-470 for metastatic hepatic tumor models using VX2-carcinoma and considered usefulness and role of TNP-470.
We used 25 Japanese white rabbits with metastatic hepatic tumors made by intraportal injection of tumor cells, and divided into five groups ; group A was control group, group B was treated by repetitive subcutaneous injection of TNP-470 and group C,D,E was treated by repetitive intraportal injection of TNP-470, adriamycin, TNP-470+adriamycin respectively 5 times at 2 or 3 days interval after tumor inoculation using portal reservoir systems. After 2 weeks, we examined anticancer effect of TNP-470 pathologically.
In the number of grown tumors, there was no remarkable difference among five groups statisitically. But mean tumor size of each group is smaller in order of group E,D,C,B,A and the differences were significant (P<0.05) except between E and D group. And intratumoral neovascularization tended to be less in group B,C,E than in group A,D pathologically.
We consider that intermittent repetitive injection of TNP-470 via reservoir system is more useful than systemic administration for liver metastasis.
