    Abstract:
    Chemotherapeutic agents were evaluated for effect on the development of urinary bladder tumors induced by N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl) nitrosamine (BBN) in male Wistar strain rats. Seven hundred and two rats were given 0.05% BBN in drinking water for 8 weeks. After BBN treatment, the animals were divided into 26 groups to follow regimens of single chemotherapy. All drugs were administered intraperitoneally except in one group that was treated orally. In our experimental series, 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), N-(2-tetrahydrofuryl)-5-fluorouracil (FT-207), carbazilquinone (CQ), vincristine (VCR) and cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (CDDP) were effective in inhibiting the incidence of bladder tumor, however, adriamycin (ADM), mitomycin C (MMC), neocarsinostatin (NCS), cyclophosphamide (CPM) and bleomycin (BLM) were not effective.
