PURPOSE: The angiogenic inhibitor TNP-470 (AGM-1470, O-chloracetyl-carbamoyl fumagillol) has been reported to inhibit the growth of human transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) in the urinary bladder. However, it is still unknown whether TNP-470 inhibits metastasis of TCC. Here, we identify an efficient protocol using TNP-470, and optimize its antitumor and antimetastatic effects on human TCC in the urinary bladder. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: In vitro, the human metastatic TCC cell line 253J B-V and human umbilical vascular endothelial cells were treated with TNP-470, and examined for cell growth and protein production of angiogenic factors. To study in vivo effects of TNP-470, 253J B-V cells were implanted orthotopically into athymic nude mice. TNP-470 was administered in several dosing and scheduling regimens, and its effects on tumor growth, metastasis, intratumor neovascularization, and mRNA expression of angiogenic factors were determined in both nonestablished and established tumors. RESULTS: In vitro treatment with TNP-470 inhibited cell growth and production of basic fibroblast growth factor protein in 253J B-V and human umbilical vascular endothelial cells in a dose-dependent manner. In vivo daily administration of TNP-470 significantly inhibited tumor growth (P < 0.001), metastasis (P < 0.05), intratumor neovascularization (P < 0.005), and mRNA expression of basic fibroblast growth factor and MMP-9 (P < 0.005), in both nonestablished and established tumors. Increasing the daily dose did not increase the effect on tumor growth, metastasis, and angiogenesis; however, the drug-induced toxicity did increase in a dose-dependent manner. CONCLUSIONS: Frequent administration of TNP-470 at an optimal biological dose provided maximal antitumor and antimetastatic effects of human TCC of the urinary bladder. It may function by down-regulating angiogenic factors.
