Antitumor Activity and Toxicity of Salts of Inorganic Group IIIa Metals: Aluminum, Gallium, Indium, and Thallium

Abstract

The toxicity and antitumor activity of salts of the Group IIIa metals aluminum, gallium, indium, and thallium were determined. With the (lethal dose) 50 as a measure, the decreasing order of toxicity was TlCl 3 ≥ In(NO 3 ) 3 > Ga(NO 3 ) 3 > Al(NO 3 ) 3 . All four metals exhibited antitumor activity, but when the tumor was inoculated by a route different from that of the drug, only Ga +3 and, to a lesser extent, In +3 inhibited tumor growth. Ga(NO 3 ) 3 was found to inhibit the growth of three out of four rodent solid tumors. Gallium therefore has potential therapeutic usefulness for treatment of solid tumors in man.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
