Effect of D,L-alpha-difluoromethylornithine on murine mammary carcinogenesis.

H J Thompson, E J Herbst, L D Meeker, R Minocha, A M Ronan, R Fite.   

Abstract

The development of chemically-induced mammary gland carcinomas in rats was dramatically suppressed by provision of a 1% solution of D,L-alpha-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) in drinking water. Treatment with DFMO significantly reduced cancer incidence and the average size and number of cancers per rat and prolonged the cancer-free time. DFMO appears to be effective in blocking some aspect of the promotion stage of chemically induced mammary carcinogenesis in the rat.
