Abstract

Incorporation of a radioisotope of platinum prepared with sufficiently high specific activity into the cisplatin molecule may significantly enhance the antitumor effect and decrease the therapeutically effective dosage of cisplatin chemotherapy. The objectives of our research were to develop a method of preparation of 195mPt with high specific activity and then implement the synthesis of 195mPt-cisplatin for in vitro and animal studies of its antitumor effect in comparison with non-radioactive cisplatin. Investigation of cisplatin and 195mPt-cisplatin on Ehrlich solid carcinoma demonstrated tumor growth inhibition of 35 and 65 %, respectively, indicating 195mPt-cisplatin is more effective than non-radioactive cisplatin in antitumor activity.
