Results are expressed as percentage of proximal (regional lymph nodes, spleen, stomach, and epiploon) and distal (liver and peritoneum) metastases at 13 and 20 days after implantation, with (+ AN-238) or without (− AN-238) a single i.v. administration of AN-238 analog on day 13. Cumulative results obtained from experiments 1, 2 (day 13; Figs. 2 and 3), and 3 (days 13 and 20; Fig. 3) are given (number of animals evaluated is indicated in parenthesis). P, proximal metastases; D, distal metastases. Difference with control: *, P < 0.001;
, P < 0.05. Difference with untreated animals:
, P < 0.05 (χ2 test).
