Abstract

The antitumor effects of kidamycin were studied on experimental animal tumors. On EHRLICH ascites carcinoma, kidamycin was remarkably effective but the effect on leukemia SN-36 was not excellent. A slight efficacy of kidamycin on leukemia L1210 was observed. On Sarcoma-180, a good and characteristic result was obtained at a dose of 7 mg/kg, and 4 of 10 treated mice survived without tumors. Kidamycin was also effective on NF-sarcoma and YOSHIDA sarcoma.
