title: Activity of 17 beta-hydroxy-3-aza-A-homo-4 alpha-androsten-4-one-p-N, N-bis(2-chloroethyl)aminophenoxyacetate (NSC-620480) in P388 leukemia. Activity of steroidal lactams in Ehrlich tumor.
abstract: A new homo-aza-steroidal ester, 17 beta-hydroxy-3-aza-A-homo-4 alpha-androsten-4-one-p-N,N-bis(2-chloroethyl)aminophenoxyaceta  te gives a T/C greater than 125% in the treatment of P388 lymphoid leukemia. Modified and unmodified steroids without alkylating congener have been studied for activity in L1210 leukemia and EAT cells.
