title: Effects of interferon on C1300 mouse neuroblastoma.
abstract: The effects of murine interferon (MuIFN) with and without cyclophosphamide (CY) were evaluated in C1300 neuroblastoma-bearing mice. Mean survival times were prolonged by administration of 25,000 IU of MuIFN three times per week by ip injection. The combination of MuIFN and CY was more effective in the treatment of mouse neuroblastoma than either agent alone. Our results suggested that MuIFN is synergistic in combination with moderate amounts of CY in mouse neuroblastoma cells and may be given for the treatment of neuroblastoma.
