title: Anti-tumour activity of aprotinin.
abstract: A malignant invasive fibrosarcoma in hamsters and a malignant mammary carcinoma in mice were each challenged with the broad spectrum proteinase inhibitor aprotinin (Trasylol). In both tumour systems, significant anti-tumour effects of aprotinin were observed. Variations in the site and dosage of aprotinin application were made in an attempt to improve the chemotherapeutic response.
