title: In vivo studies of a platinum(II) metallointercalator.
abstract: An in vivo study for determining the toxicity and efficacy of [Pt(S,S-dach)(phen)Cl(2).1.5H(2)O.0.5HCl (PHENSS) in female Specific Pathogen Free (SPF) Swiss nude mice bearing PC3 tumour xenografts revealed PHENSS to be non-toxic and effective in decreasing tumour growth.
