The effect of cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) (cis-DDP) on the murine fibrosarcoma cells was investigated in vitro and in vivo. For in vitro experiments tumour cell suspensions containing a given amount of cis-DDP were treated in water bath maintained at a desired temperature, and cell survival was determined by the lung colony assay. The D0 or the time to reduce survival from 1.0 to 0.37 on the exponential portion of the survival curve was determined and 1/D0 was plotted as a function of 1/T, where T stands for the absolute temperature. The slope of this Arrhenius plot indicated that the activation energy for chemical reaction of cis-DDP was 44 kcal/M between the temperature range from 37 to 41 degrees C. For in vivo experiments tumours were transplanted into the foot and treated by immersing the animal foot into a water bath when each tumour reached an average diameter of 4 mm (35 mm3). The drug was injected i.p. immediately before hyperthermia. The tumour growth (TG) time or the time required for a tumour to reach 1000 mm3 from the treatment day was determined, and the median TG time was obtained by logit analysis. Dose-response curves between the TG time and drug dose indicated that the cytotoxic effect of cis-DDP was enhanced at elevated temperatures. This enhancement increased with increasing temperature from room temperature to 43.5 degrees C. Because of short plasma half-time of cis-DDP, continuous infusion and pulse injections were attempted.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

D002945 Cisplatin An inorganic and water-soluble platinum complex. After undergoing hydrolysis, it reacts with DNA to produce both intra and interstrand crosslinks. These crosslinks appear to impair replication and transcription of DNA. The cytotoxicity of cisplatin correlates with cellular arrest in the G2 phase of the cell cycle.

D003131 Combined Modality Therapy The treatment of a disease or condition by several different means simultaneously or sequentially. Chemoimmunotherapy, RADIOIMMUNOTHERAPY, chemoradiotherapy, cryochemotherapy, and SALVAGE THERAPY are seen most frequently, but their combinations with each other and surgery are also used.
