Popis: | Background Miriplatin (formerly SM-11355), a novel lipophilic platinum complex developed to treat hepatocellular carcinoma, is administered into the hepatic artery using an oily lymphographic agent (Lipiodol Ultra-Fluide®) as a carrier. We clarified the usefulness of miriplatin as an agent for transarterial chemoembolization. Methods Platinum compounds released from miriplatin into serum, medium and Earle’s balanced salt solution were examined. Then, miriplatin and cisplatin were administered to rats bearing hepatoma AH109A tumors in livers. Platinum concentrations in tissues and DNA were assessed. Results Miriplatin showed a more sustained release than cisplatin. Dichloro[(1R, 2R)-1, 2-cyclohexane diamine-N, N′]platinum, the most abundant platinum compound released from miriplatin, was as effective as cisplatin in inhibiting the growth of cells. Miriplatin was selectively disposed of in tumors, maintained in tumors longer than cisplatin and caused apparent tumor regression inducing platinum-DNA adducts to form and massive apoptosis. Conclusion Miriplatin appears to be a suitable chemotherapeutic agent for transarterial chemoembolization. |
