Antitumor activity of of NVP-BEZ235 compared with rapamycin in 786-O and A498 xenografts. A) Growth curves of 786-O and A498 xenografts in nude beige mice treated with saline, rapamycin, or NVP-BEZ235 daily by gavage. Each treatment group was comprised of 8 mice in 786-O model (6 mice in A498), and each data point represents the mean estimated tumor volume of the tumors (error bar = 1 S.D.). B) Intracellular signaling events in 786-O and A498 xenografts from mice treated with saline (S), rapamycin (R), or NVP-BEZ235 (B) for 3 days.
