Table 2. Response of TH-MYCN model of neuroblastoma to anti-vascular therapy.

Summary of tumor volume and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) parameters determined prior to and 24h following treatment of tumor-bearing THMYCN mice with a single dose of 200mg/kg ZD6126 or vehicle, or prior to and 48h following daily treatment with 6mg/kg cediranib or vehicle.
