ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the antitumor effect of self-developed albumin bound paclitaxel for injection ( PAB) and commercial albumin-bound paclitaxel for injection ( Abraxane ) . Methods The antineoplastic effects of PAB and Abraxane were evaluated in H22, Lewis and RM-1 allograft tumor mouse models after repeated intravenous injection (13. 4, 20. 0, 30. 0 and 45. 0 mg·kg-1 PAB and 20. 0 and/or 30. 0 mg·kg-1 Abraxane, respectively). Results PAB significantly inhibited H22 tumor growth at from the doses of 13. 4, 20. 0, 30. 0, and 45. 0 mg·kg-1,and the antitumor effect of PAB at 20. 0 mg·kg-1 was not significantly different from Abraxane at 20. 0 mg·kg-1 . PAB dose-dependently inhibited Lewis and RM-1 tumor growth at the doses of 20. 0, 30. 0, and 45. 0 mg·kg-1 . The no observed adverse effect level of PAB and Abraxane was 20. 0 mg· kg-1 in Lewis and RM-1 bearing C57 female mice. The antitumor effect and toxicity was not significantly different between PAB and Abraxane at equivalent doses. Conclusion At the same dose level, the antitumor activity and toxicity of PAB was equivalent to those of Abraxane.
