Abstract
Weekly treatments with doxorubicin encapsulated in long circulating, s terically stabilised liposomes (DOX-SL) reduced the incidence of metas tases from primary mammary carcinomas from 24 of 47 untreated mice to 3 of 23 treated mice. Toxic side-effects were limited to minor, transi ent weight losses.
