Comparative Analysis of the Pharmacological Activity of Bis(3,5-di-Tert-Butyl-4-Hydroxyphenylthiolate)Dimethylol in Different Modes of Administration on a Mouse Model of Melanoma B16 Tumor Growth.

We performed a comparative analysis of the pharmacological activity of the hybrid organotin compound bis(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenylthiolate)dimethylol (Me-3) administered in different modes to mice with transplanted melanoma B16 to identify the most effective dosage regimen. Three modes of administration were used: preventive (before transplantation of tumor cells), classical according to Z. P. Sof'ina (48 h after transplantation of tumor cells), and delayed (7 days after transplantation of tumor cells, after formation of nodules of the primary tumor node). Compound Me-3 was administered at a total dose of 375 mg/kg intraperitoneally once a day for 5 days. The classical mode of administration was identified as the most effective, which indicates the preventive antimetastatic activity of Me-3 on the model of the transplanted mouse tumor melanoma B16.
