Ifetroban (50 mg/kg/d; p.o.; 2 d prior to, through 28 d after tumor injection) decreases hematogenous metastasis of multiple cancer types without in mice model[2].
Ifetroban (50 mg/kg/d; p.o.; 12 d) does not affect primary tumor growth but decreases tumor vessels in mice with 4T1 (mouse mammary cancer)[2].
Ifetroban (BMS 180,291; 1 and 3 mg/kg, p.o.) inhibits aggregation and antagonizes TP-receptor in monekys. Ifetroban (3 mg/kg, i.v.) causes only marginal and transient hemodynamic effects in anesthetized African green monkeys[3].
| Animal Model: | Athymic (nu/nu) Balb/C female mice injected with tumor cells: 4T1 (mouse mammary cancer), MDA-MB-231 (human breast cancer), MiaPaCa2 (human pancreatic cancer), and A549 (human lung cancer) model[2] |
| Dosage: | 50 mg/kg; via 25 μL vehicle (4% sucrose in sterile water) |
| Administration: | Oral gavage; pretreated before 2 days and treated 28 days later |
| Result: | Decreased the percentage of mice harboring MDA-MB-231 lung metastases from 90% to 20%, and mice with A549 lung metastases from 60% to 10%. |
