FIGURE 5.
Compound F8·2HCl suppressed gastric xenograft tumor growth in vivo. Male BALB/c nude mice were divided into five groups (n = 6 per group) including vehicle group, apatinib (positive drug) at 37.5 mg/kg dose, compound F8·2HCl at 37.5 mg/kg dose, compound F8·2HCl at 75 mg/kg dose and administrated via oral gavage twice daily for 15 days. (A) Tumor volumes plotted as mean ± SEM. (B) Mice weight curve during treatment plotted as mean ± SD. (C,D) Tumor weight and size on the final day. Statistical analyses showed the mean ± SD or SEM of three independent experiments, comparing each treatment group to the blank and apatinib group: (*) p < 0.05, (**) p < 0.01, (***) p < 0.001.
