In conclusion, both mono- and combination therapy of K1-3 and IL-12 significantly inhibited tumour progression in this experimental tumour model. The co-administration of both compounds did not result in additive antitumour effects. We hypothesise that the lack of additive antitumour effects of the combination treatment might be attributed to partially counteracting antitumour effects and further studies are needed to illustrate the interference of tumour angiogenesis and tumour inflammation in this tumour model.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
