Table 2.
Rate of tumor growth per week.
| Part of tumor tissue | Increase in the tumor tissue per week, cm3 | |||
| 7 day–14 day | 14 day–21 day | 21 day–28 day | 28 day–35 day | |

| Necrotic | 0.01 ± 0.005 | 0.10 ± 0.02 | 1.20 ± 0.30 | 1.59 ± 0.35 |
| Viable | 0.29 ± 0.06 | 0.65 ± 0.11 | 0.73 ± 0.15 | −0.34 ± 0.10 |
Tumor volume (M ± SEM) within the previous week (e.g., day 7) was subtracted from the tumor volume within the next week (e.g., day 14). Volume of viable tumor tissue within the last week decreased.
