Abstract

Adriamycin (doxorubicin HCl) (10 mg/kg) administered i.p. to C₃H HeJ mice 24 hr before or after thoracic radiation has been found to reduce the LD_{50 40-180} i.e. the dose to kill 50% animals through pulmonary damage, from 1600 rad to 960 rad. A similar dose of Adriamycin administered i.p. 0.5-1 hour before irradiation was found not to enhance the skin reaction of male ICR albino mice feet.
