Clinical testing of the radiosensitiser Ro-07-0582. I. Dose tolerance, serum and tumour concentrations. 1976

A J Gray, and S Dische, and G E Adams, and I R Flockhart, and J L Foster

Patients have been given single oral doses of the radiosensitiser Ro-07-0582 and serum concentrations have been attained in the range expected to be of value in radiosensitisation. Immediate gastrointestinal side effects appear to limit the dose to below 140 mg/kg but radiosensitising serum levels of approximately 200 mug/ml can be attained. Tolerance may be improved by giving anti-emetics and a more palatable preparation. Estimates of the concentration of Ro-07-0582 in tumour have ranged from 12 to 92% of the serum concentration at the time of determination.
