    Journal: J Med; 1979; 10(6):435-43. PubMed ID: 233697.
    Abstract:
    Pentoxifylline (Trental), a phosphodiesterase inhibitor with platelet aggregation inhibitory effect, was shown to decrease spontaneous metastases in a Wilms' tumor model in Furth-Wistar rats and in neuroblastoma C1300 in A/J mice. It was ineffective in the NIH renal adenocarcinoma in BALB/cCr mice.
