Abstract
Simple Summary The application of mild hyperthermia can be beneficial for solid tumor treatment by induction of sublethal effects on a tissue- and cellular level. When designing a hyperthermia experiment, several factors should be taken into consideration. In this review, multiple elementary hyperthermia devices are described in detail to aid standardization of treatment design. Abstract Preclinical studies have shown that application of mild hyperthermia (40–43 °C) is a promising adjuvant to solid tumor treatment. To improve preclinical testing, enhance reproducibility, and allow comparison of the obtained results, it is crucial to have standardization of the available methods. Reproducibility of methods in and between research groups on the same techniques is crucial to have a better prediction of the clinical outcome and to improve new treatment strategies (for instance with heat-sensitive nanoparticles). Here we provide a preclinically oriented review on the use and applicability of basic hyperthermia systems available for solid tumor thermal treatment in small animals. The complexity of these techniques ranges from a simple, low-cost water bath approach, irradiation with light or lasers, to advanced ultrasound and capacitive heating devices.

Abstract
Hyperthermia has demonstrated clinical success in improving the efficacy of both chemo- and radio-therapy in solid tumors. Pre-clinical and clinical research studies have demonstrated that targeted hyperthermia can increase tumor blood flow and increase the perfused fraction of the tumor in a temperature and time dependent manner. Changes in tumor blood circulation can produce significant physiological changes including enhanced vascular permeability, increased oxygenation, decreased interstitial fluid pressure, and reestablishment of normal physiological pH conditions. These alterations in tumor physiology can positively impact both small molecule and nanomedicine chemotherapy accumulation and distribution within the tumor, as well as the fraction of the tumor susceptible to radiation therapy. Hyperthermia can trigger drug release from thermosensitive formulations and further improve the accumulation, distribution, and efficacy of chemotherapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE Localised hyperthermia in rodent studies is challenging due to the small target size. This study describes the development and characterisation of an MRI-compatible high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) system to perform localised mild hyperthermia treatments in rodent models. MATERIAL AND METHODS The hyperthermia platform consisted of an MRI-compatible small animal HIFU system, focused transducers with sector-vortex lenses, a custom-made receive coil, and means to maintain systemic temperatures of rodents. The system was integrated into a 3T MR imager. Control software was developed to acquire images, process temperature maps, and adjust output power using a proportional-integral-derivative feedback control algorithm. Hyperthermia exposures were performed in tissue-mimicking phantoms and in a rodent model (n = 9). During heating, an ROI was assigned in the heated region for temperature control and the target temperature was 42 °C; 30 min mild hyperthermia treatment followed by a 10-min cooling procedure was performed on each animal. RESULTS 3D-printed sector-vortex lenses were successful at creating annular focal regions which enables customisation of the heating volume. Localised mild hyperthermia performed in rats produced a mean ROI temperature of 42.1 ± 0.3 °C. The T10 and T90 percentiles were 43.2 ± 0.4 °C and 41.0 ± 0.3 °C, respectively. For a 30-min treatment, the mean time duration between 41-45 °C was 31.1 min within the ROI. CONCLUSIONS The MRI-compatible HIFU system was successfully adapted to perform localised mild hyperthermia treatment in rodent models. A target temperature of 42 °C was well-maintained in a rat thigh model for 30 min.

Abstract
To evaluate the role of hyperthermia combined with chemotherapy in the loco-regional treatment of tumors, a retrospective analysis was done with 228 limb melanoma patients treated with hyperthermic antiblastic perfusion (HAP). A series of treatment- and tumor-related prognostic factors was analyzed to establish their influence on tumor response, loco-regional control, and survival. Concerning tumor response, the logistic model showed that the number of lesions and the minimal tumor temperature (min T) maintained their individual predictive values (P < 0.000001 and P = 0.04, respectively). For loco-regional control, only the number of lesions had a significant predictive value. No direct correlation was found between the treatment-related variables and loco-regional control. However, the 5-year survival rate was significantly higher for patients who achieved a complete response (CR) (51.5%, P = 0.0033) as compared to those who did not (33.3%), providing indirect evidence of the role of the treatment. Multivariate analysis showed that both disease-free and overall survival are strongly influenced by numerous clinical variables and the min T always maintained its significance. When analyzing the subgroup of 119 patients evaluable for tumor response, the Cox model selected the tumor response as the dominant factor for both disease-free and overall survival. These data seem to demonstrate that the optimization of treatment parameters is crucial in determining the CR rate, which, in turn, positively affects the disease outcome. HAP is the treatment of choice for recurrent limb melanoma, and hyperthermia plays an important role in exploiting the efficacy of this technique.

Abstract
The physiological and therapeutic effects of the bioreductive agent RSU1069 (80 mg/kg i.p.) and its prodrug RB6145 (240 mg/kg i.p.) were investigated in the SCCVII tumour. Using laser Doppler flowmetry it was found that RSU1069 produced a significant 30% reduction in tumour blood flow 30 min after administration, while RB6145 had no effect. Tumour oxygenation, measured with an Eppendorf oxygen electrode, was unchanged by either agent except for a reduction in values less than 2.5 mmHg at 30 min after injection. Neither agent significantly altered tumour energy metabolism, assessed by 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Both agents significantly increased tumour glucose content by a factor of 1.6-1.7 at 30 min after injection, but had no effect on glucose-6-phosphate or lactate levels. Tumour growth was significantly delayed by heating (42.5 degrees C, 60 min), and although neither RSU1069 nor RB6145 alone had any effect on tumour growth they produced a similar enhancement of the tumour response to heat. The therapeutic effects are consistent with the known conversion in vivo of one third of the pro-drug RB6145 to its active product RSU1069, however the physiological effects of the two agents in the SCCVII tumour are not identical.

Abstract
We examined the effects of misonidazole (MISO) and recombinant human tumour necrosis factor (rh-TNF) on tumour blood flow in mice given hyperthermic treatments. MISO (500 mg kg-1) or rh-TNF (6 x 10(4) unit kg-1) was administered intraperitoneally (i.p.) prior to hyperthermia to nude mice bearing a xenoplanted human gastric cancer and tumour blood flow was measured by a hydrogen diffusion method based on polarographic determinations. MISO plus hyperthermia produced a temperature-dependent decrease in blood flow and, at 43.5 degrees C, the flow decreased to 15-30% of control and remained low for up to 24 h. Blood flow following rh-TNF plus hyperthermia was less than that at the same temperatures following MISO plus hyperthermia, and, at 43.5 degrees C, the flow decreased to 10-20% of control and remained low for up to 48 h. Tumour growth delay was closely related to the duration of the decrease in blood flow. Thus, the profound decrease in tumour blood flow following hyperthermia plus MISO or rh-TNF and the consequential tumour regression may well be of potential clinical significance.

Abstract
The effect of pH on misonidazole-induced cell killing at normal and elevated temperatures and on radiosensitization by misonidazole at 37 degrees C was assessed in FSaIIC fibrosarcoma cells in vitro. At doses of 5-500 microM for 1 hr, misonidazole was 1.5- to 2-fold more toxic toward hypoxic versus euoxic cells at 37 degrees C and pH 7.40. At 42 degrees C and 43 degrees C at pH 7.40, a less than 2-fold increase in cytotoxicity was observed in both normally oxic and hypoxic cells as compared with 37 degrees C. At pH 6.45 and 37 degrees C, misonidazole was less cytotoxic toward both euoxic and hypoxic cells than at pH 7.40. Unexpectedly, exposure to misonidazole at 42 degrees C or 43 degrees C and pH 6.45 caused no significant increase in cytotoxicity over that attributable to hyperthermia alone. Similarly, the dose modifying effect of misonidazole on single radiation fractions in vitro was also reduced at pH 6.45 versus pH 7.40 (2.60 versus 2.40, p less than 0.01). In vivo, treatment of the FSaIIC tumor with misonidazole (1 g/kg) and/or local hyperthermia (43 degrees C for 30 min to the tumor-bearing limb) in conjunction with radiation (10, 20, or 30 Gy) yielded a radiation dose modifying factor for misonidazole of 1.32, for hyperthermia of 1.38, and for the combination of 2.06 (probably additive). Analysis of the cytotoxicity achieved by these treatments in Hoechst 33342 dye-selected tumor subpopulations demonstrated that, whereas radiation was more toxic toward bright (presumably euoxic) cells, misonidazole, hyperthermia, and the combination were significantly more toxic toward dim (presumably hypoxic) cells. The addition of both hyperthermia and misonidazole to radiation more than overcame the relative resistance of the dim subpopulation to 10 Gy. These results indicate that misonidazole is a reasonable drug for use with hyperthermia and radiation to increase killing of hypoxic cells, but the decrease in cytotoxicity and radiosensitizing abilities of this agent observed under acidotic conditions could reduce the effectiveness of this treatment.

Abstract
The effect of etanidazole was examined in vitro and in vivo in the FSaIIC tumor system. At pH 7.40 and 37 degrees C, etanidazole at 5-500 microM for 1 hr was minimally cytotoxic. At 42 degrees C and 43 degrees C, however, the cytotoxicity of etanidazole increased. Etanidazole was more cytotoxic at pH 6.45 and 37 degrees than at pH 7.40 by about 1 log. Increasing the temperature to 42 degrees C or 43 degrees C at pH 6.45 during drug exposure, however, caused little increase in drug killing above the lethality of hyperthermia. When the radiosensitizing abilities of etanidazole were tested in vitro, there was a radiation dose modifying factor of 2.40 at pH 7.40, but only 1.70 at pH 6.45. In vivo, etanidazole (1 g/kg) produced a radiation dose modifying factor of 1.47, whereas 43 degrees C for 30 min produced a radiation dose modifying factor of 1.38. The combination resulted in a radiation dose modifying factor of 2.29. When the cytotoxicities of hyperthermia (43 degrees C x 30 min), etanidazole (500 mg/kg or 1 mg/kg), and radiation (10 Gy) combinations were assayed by Hoechst 33342 dye selected tumor subpopulations, 43 degrees C x 30 min increased the killing of irradiated dim cells by approximately 9.2-fold but by only 2.9-fold in bright cells. Etanidazole (1 g/kg) increased radiation killing of bright cells by about 3-fold and dim cells by about 4.3-fold. The combination of hyperthermia and etanidazole increased the killing of both dim and bright cells exposed to radiation by approximately 10-fold versus 10 Gy alone.

Abstract
A mouse adenocarcinoma was treated with 20 Gy X rays, hyperthermia (30 minutes at 43 degrees C), Ro-03-8799, or a combination of two or three of these agents. Combined treatments increase growth delay in the tumor and this was greatest with the combination of all three modalities. Extensive amounts of necrosis were observed after the combined treatments. This effect was most pronounced after treatment modalities including hyperthermia. On the other hand, the radiation-induced micronucleus formation was more enhanced by the sensitizer than by hyperthermia. After X irradiation and combined treatments with X rays a G2-block was observed in DNA-histograms. Tetraploid cells appeared in large amounts that started DNA synthesis followed by necrosis. From these tumors it was impossible to obtain regular DNA-histograms. Tumor regression is a combined result of reduced cell renewal, increased cytogenetic damage, and development of necrosis.

Abstract
It is known that hydralazine can decrease blood flow to experimental murine tumours. A consequence of this, in the KHT sarcoma, is the induction of close to 100 per cent radiobiological hypoxia, which lasts for nearly 2 h following i.v. injection of 5 mg/kg hydralazine to the mouse. This phenomenon is exploitable in order to increase the apparent sensitizing efficiency of the nitroheterocyclic radiosensitizers, misonidazole and RSU 1069, and is demonstrated using the treatment schedule: sensitizer----60 min----X-rays----1 min----hydralazine. Such a strategy will first take advantage of the radiosensitizing properties of the nitroimidazole, then after irradiation the hydralazine should allow expression of the differential toxicity towards hypoxic cells known to occur with misonidazole and RSU 1069. Misonidazole gives an enhancement ratio (ER) of 1.3 at 100 mg/kg, rising to 2.0 at 1000 mg/kg. Where hydralazine is given after irradiation, no additional cell kill is observed with 1000 mg/kg. In contrast, at lower doses of misonidazole, hydralazine induces a substantial increase in cell killing such that the ER obtained with 100 mg/kg is the same as that achieved with 1000 mg/kg misonidazole when used alone with radiation. Similarly, 20 mg/kg RSU 1069 with radiation followed by hydralazine is equivalent to the radiosensitizing effect of 80 mg/kg RSU 1069 without hydralazine. In addition, doses of RSU 1069 that normally give no radiosensitization (5 or 10 mg/kg) produce substantial increases in cell killing when combined with hydralazine.

Abstract
Hyperthermia enhances nitroimidazole cytotoxicity, possibly through increased nitroreductive bioactivation. Using C3H/He mouse liver microsomes and KHT tumour homogenates, we have investigated the effects of temperature (33-44 degrees) on the anaerobic nitroreduction of benznidazole (BENZO) to its amine metabolite in vitro. Microsomal nitroreductase activity was unaltered after 2 hr anaerobic incubation at 37 and 41 degrees. However at 44 degrees and 47 degrees, inactivation occurred with half-lives of 68 and 17 min respectively. At 33 degrees microsomal reduction rates were 45% lower than at 37 degrees. Reduction rates were increased by 22% at 41 compared to 37 degrees, and by 0-54% depending on substrate concentration at 44 degrees. Microsomal amine formation followed Michaelis-Menten kinetics up to 41 degrees. The 4 degrees rise from 33 to 37 degrees increased the apparent Vmax by 45% (from 0.54 to 0.98 nmol min-1 mg-1 protein) with a further increase of 32% occurring at 41 degrees. Apparent Km values were unaltered. Deviation from Michaelis-Menten kinetics was seen for amine formation at 44 degrees. The kinetics of parent drug disappearance exhibited deviation from the Michaelis-Menten relationship at all temperatures studied. KHT tumour BENZO amine formation rates were also markedly increased at elevated temperatures, e.g. by 26% at 37 degrees compared to 33 degrees and by a further 35% from 42.5 to 57.4 pmol min-1 mg-1 protein over the range 37-41 degrees. In contrast to the microsomal results, tumour reduction rates were enhanced by an average of 54% (range, 26-79%) at 44 degrees compared to 37 degrees at low as well as high substrate concentrations. These results support the hypothesis that hyperthermia-enhanced nitroimidazole cytotoxicity may be a result of increased nitroreductive bioactivation.

Abstract
We have investigated the effects of 50 min whole-body hyperthermia (WBH; 15 min equilibration followed by 41 degrees C for 35 min) on the toxicity and pharmacokinetics of the radiosensitizer Ro 03-8799 in mice. WBH markedly reduced Ro 03-8799 LD50/7d from 779 to 259 micrograms g-1 (P less than 0.001). Pharmacokinetics were studied at 175 micrograms g-1 (approximately 0.6 WBH LD50/7d) with and without heat and 437 micrograms g-1 (approximately 0.6 control LD50/7d) without heat. WBH increased Ro 03-8799 plasma concentrations and prolonged its elimination t1/2 by 26% (P less than 0.01). Total plasma area under the curve (AUC0-infinity) was increased by 22%, but was still less than 50% of the unheated high-dose value. Ro 03-8799 concentrated 300-400% in tumour and brain relative to plasma. Absolute tumour and brain levels were unaltered by WBH, giving reduced tissue/plasma ratios. WBH greatly inhibited glomerular filtration (51Cr EDTA clearance) during heating, contributing to the increased plasma Ro 03-8799 concentrations. WBH increased peak plasma concentrations of the Ro 03-8799 N-oxide metabolite Ro 31-0313 by 61% and the beta-phase AUC of i.v. administered Ro 31-0313 by 36%. Since Ro 31-0313 levels were increased to a greater extent after Ro 03-8799 and WBH than Ro 31-0313 and WBH, WBH must both increase metabolite production and decrease its plasma clearance. WBH had no effect on Ro 31-0313 tumour concentrations or its exclusion from brain. These complex effects of WBH on Ro 03-8799 pharmacokinetics may contribute to the enhanced toxicity, possibly through hyperthermia-stimulated bioreductive drug activation, but do not wholly explain it.

Abstract
The magnitude of potentiation by whole body hyperthermia (45 min at 41 degrees C) of cis-platinum (DDP), CCNU, BCNU, chlorambucil and melphalan (Mel) on two tumours was compared with that on marrow in C3H mice. Drug damage was assayed in the KHT tumour by growth delay and in the RIF-1 tumour by clonogenic cell survival 24 h after treatment and/or by growth delay. Toxicity to marrow stem cells was assayed 24 h after treatment, by the spleen colony technique. When drug was given at the start of heating, all drugs were potentiated both in tumour and marrow to varying degrees. However, there was no therapeutic gain for the combined treatment with DDP on RIF-1, with CCNU or BCNU on KHT, or with CHL on either RIF-1 or KHT. Therapeutic ratios for Mel of 1.9 to 2.0 for KHT and of 1.1 to 1.8 in RIF-1 were measured over the dose range 7.5 to 15.0 mg/kg in unheated animals, indicating net therapeutic gain under these conditions. An absolute therapeutic gain was found for Mel in KHT when Mel was given 30 min before the start of heat.

Abstract
A system has been developed for uniformly heating mouse tumours by using a combination of 27.12 MHz radiofrequency electric fields (RF) and immersion in heated liquid. Continuous tumour thermometry with implanted thermocouples is necessary in order to modulate the RF power to maintain a constant temperature over 1 h. Tumours implanted intramuscularly in the hind limbs of mice were heated between a pair of 1.9 cm diameter parallel copper plates. The optimum temperature profile was achieved if the RF heating was combined with immersion of the limb in circulating saline, preheated to the desired temperature. This method of electrical coupling between the plates and tissues has been shown to be significantly better than using ECG jelly or unheated liquid, and it is better than simple immersion in heated liquid without RF. A temperature monitoring system has been developed, using fine thermocouples implanted into the tumour, to regulate the applied RF power. Each complete thermocouple probe is less than 0.5mm in diameter and consists of 6 separate monitoring junctions spaced at 1.5mm intervals along its length. Using this monitoring system the temperature within tumours has been maintained constant (+/- 0.1 degrees C) for a period of 1 h.

Abstract
The effect of hyperthermia alone on the growth of the BT4A neurogenic tumour implanted into the feet of BD IX rats has been investigated. Following treatment by immersion of the tumour-bearing leg in a water bath at 42.0 to 45.0 degrees C a temporary retardation of tumour growth was observed but no cure. The lag phase before regrowth occurred was temperature and time dependent. A log-liner correlation was found between the surviving fraction previously found in vitro and the heat sensitivity of the cell line in vivo.

Abstract
The in vivo response of B16 melanoma and Lewis lung carcinoma to combinations of hyperthermia and graded doses of CCNU or Melphalan was studied. To obtain dose-response curves and quantitative comparisons of different treatments, an agar-colony assay was used to measure survival of cells from excised tumours. For heating experiments, the use of 2 tumours per animal, one heated and one not, allowed all other factors to be kept constant. When tumours were immersed in a water-bath at 43 degrees C for 1 h, Thermal Enhancement Ratios (TER) measured from the slopes of the dose-response curves were up to 1.6 for CCNU and 2.4 for Melphalan. Direct heat killing of about 1 decade was seen for 1 h at 43 degrees C. The anaesthetic Saffan also enhanced drug cell kill; the largest Dose Modifying Factor (2.7) was measured for Melphalan in the Lewis lung tumour. The duration of heating, and waterbath temperature, both influenced the enhancement of cell killing by CCNU, as did the time of excision of tumours between 0 and 3 1/2 h after treatment. There was no difference in effect between 3 1/2 and 24 h. The interaction between heat and CCNU varied if the interval between them was altered. The maximum effect was found if the heat and drug were given in close sequence.

Abstract
The response of multicellular tumour spheroids of the EMT6 cell line to combinations of hyperthermia and Bleomycin (BLM) or Adriamycin (ADM) has been investigated. Using this model system, we have demonstrated enhanced BLM cytotoxicity at 43 degrees C and also heat-induced drug tolerance to BLM at 43 degrees C. ADM cytotoxicity was not significantly increased after 43 degrees C x 1 h but after 6 h at 42 degrees C greatly enhanced cell-killing was evident. These results are discussed in relation to our previous data for EMT6 cells growing either as monolayer cultures in vitro or as solid tumours in mice.

Abstract
Several modalities involving a Multiple Daily Fractionation (MDF) course in combination with hyperthermia and/or the hypoxic sensitizer misonidazole have been tested on a mouse tumor system and then applied, with the proper sequencing, to a group of patients with multiple (N2-N3) neck node metastases from H&N cancers. Different lesions of the same patients underwent different modalities. The clinical results indicate the effectiveness, in respect to a historical series of patients treated with conventional fractionation (200 rads/day, five days/week), of either MDF alone (200 + 150 + 150 rads/day, five days/week) or MDF + hyperthermia (500 MHz, 42-43 C, 45 min., after 2nd daily fraction, on day 1, 3, and 5 of each week) or MDF + misonidazole (1.2 g/m2 daily, 2 hours before 1st fraction, up to a maximum dose of 12 g/m2), or MDF + hyperthermia + misonidazole. The latter modality appears to be possibly the most effective at inducing a complete local tumor response lasting longer in time (follow-up to a minimum of four months). The pharmacology of misonidazole has been monitored in the patients to avoid undesired excessive drug plasma level. No neurological symptoms have been observed. Oropharyngeal mucositis has been observed only in patients treated with misonidazole and radiation through two cross-firing portals. The problem of selecting individual patients for a particular modality is discussed.

Abstract
The effects of sodium pentobarbitone anaesthesia, the presence of a tumour, and local hyperthermia to a tumour-bearing leg, on the pharmacokinetics of MISO in the mouse are reported. Analysis of MISO and its metabolite Ro 05-9963 was by high-performance liquid chromatography. The plasma kinetics of MISO were largely unaffected by any of these treatments, but hyperthermia substantially reduced tumour concentrations of the drug. The effects of tumour site and size on unheated-tumour drug concentrations were also studied, and an increase in tumour size was shown to decrease tumour MISO levels, but to different degrees according to whether implanted in the leg or flank. Uniformity of MISO distribution throughout heated and unheated tumours was examined, and levels were found to be constant within tumours. The presence of a temperature detector in heated tumours did not affect their drug concentration.

Abstract
Both misonidazole (MISO) and hyperthermia are known to enhance the radiation response of hypoxic cells, and to be selectively cytotoxic against cells in a hypoxic and acidic environment. The ability of these conditions to modify the effect of irradiation and their individual relationship was studied in a C3H mammary carcinoma and its surrounding skin. Simultaneous treatment with MISO, hyperthermia and radiation increased the radiation effect, with enhancement ratios (ER) of up to about 15 (1 mg/g MISO and 43.5 degrees C for 60 min.). However, such treatment also caused a smaller hyperthermic radiosensitization of the normal tissue, so that the therapeutic ratio was only increased by a factor of about 3 compared to radiation alone. Simultaneous MISO and radiation followed by hyperthermia 4 h later gave a moderate enhancement, with ER up to 3 in the tumour, but with no enhancement of the normal tissue, so that there is a similar 3-fold increase in therapeutic gain. The mechanism by which MISO and hyperthermia enhanced the radiation response may be explained as an independent action of the hypoxic radiosensitization of MISO and the selective hyperthermic cytotoxicity against acidic and chronic hypoxic cells; simultaneous hyperthermia added a further heat-induced general radiosensitization. Surprisingly, no MISO cytotoxicity could be detected in this tumour system, with or without simultaneous hyperthermia. The results indicate that in the proper treatment schedule, MISO may be a valuable addition to a combined hyperthermia and radiation treatment.

Abstract
Combination treatment of a C3H mammary carcinoma with misonidazole, hyperthermia and radiation resulted in greater local tumour control than with any of these agents singly or in pairs. Dose modification factors for the 3-fold combinations were 3.28 when tumours were immersed in a 42.5 degree C waterbath for 1h after irradiation, and 5.03 at 43.0 degrees C. Cytotoxicity of misonidazole alone was slight, as reflected histologically and in tumour growth. Hyperthermia had a marked effect on these two parameters. Foot damage by hyperthermia was greatest when feet were taped.

Abstract
Spheroids of EMT6 tumour cells were grown in spinner culture. As with V79 cell spheroids, the combination of 1.5mM misonidazole and hyperthermia at 42.5 degree C for 1 or 2 h cuased greater cytotoxicity than either heat or drug alone. Radioresistant hypoxic cells at the centre of the spheroids were eliminated but other cells were also killed.

Abstract
There is now evidence that several classes of nitro compounds which have been used as radiosensitizers also function as cytotoxic agents specific for hypoxic cells. The 2-nitroimidazole, Ro-07-0582, (1-(2-nitroimidazol-1-yl)-3-methoxy-2-propanol) is a compound of this type, and its effectiveness as a cytotoxic agent is dependent on drug concentration, contact time and temperature. In vitro, Ro-07-0582 in air at 37 degrees C does not cause loss of cell viability at concentrations up to 2 mM, even when in contact for several days. In contrast, hypoxic cells do not tolerate much lower concentrations of drugs, even if the contact time is only a few hours. When the temperature is raised above 37 degrees C, there is a pronounced increase in the slope of the survival curves; for example, at 41 degrees C (for 1 mM Ro-07-0582, (200 microng/ml), the slope changes by a factor of 2-0 relative to that for 37 degrees C. For cells in air at 41 degrees C, as at 37 degrees C, there is no toxic effect at the concentration of drug tested. In the absence of drug, there is no cytotoxic effect of hyperthermia alone under these conditions. These results are discussed in terms of Arrhenius parameters.
