Notes: P values less than 0.05 were set as the level of significance. Data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation.

a

These parameters could not be estimated due to inadequate blood draw.

b

Represents significant difference from controls.

c

Represents significant difference from free cisplatin.

d

These parameters could not be accurately measured due to hemolysis in samples at blood draw.

Abbreviations: Alk phos, alkaline phosphatase; ALT, alanine aminotransferase; AST, aspartate aminotransferase; BUN, blood urea nitrogen.
