The effect of paclitaxel and paclitaxel nanoparticles on the growth of tumours of cell line A2780 when grown as xenografts in mice. Mice were treated once tumours reached a mean diameter of 0.5 cm. Groups of six mice were either untreated (), given paclitaxel (dissolved in cremophor EL, ethanol, dextrose) intravenously (), or paclitaxel-loaded nanoparticles orally () on days 0, 2, and 4. Tumour volumes (A) and body weights (B) are expressed relative to that on the day of treatment (day 0) and results are the mean±SEM of six mice
