MS-PCR – methylation specific PCR; M – methylated, U – unmethylated Survival ratio is the ratio of median survival for treatment vs. placebo. p-value refers to the comparison of survival for the indicated treatment relative to placebo treatment. Reproduced from (Carlson, 2009). Mice were treated with TMZ at 66 mg/kg/day for 5 days and/or RT at 2 Gy twice per day × 5 days. Dosing was initiated 2 weeks prior to mice anticipated to become moribund for a given tumor line.
