Concurrent with a phase4 trial of 4HPR in patients with various cancers, we studied the plasma pharmacokinetics of both 4HPR and its major metabolite 4MPR as well as the effect of 4HPR administration on plasma retinol concentrations using a simple, specific and sensitive HPLC procedure. Initial esti
4HPR, an analogue of ATRA, effectively induces growth inhibition and apoptosis in breast cancer cell lines and animal models but is ineffective against advanced human breast tumors. Different compounds, including tamoxifen, are currently being tested to increase 4HPR efficacy in the clinic. Here, we
