The GnRH-III based bioconjugates with or without spacer (GnRH-III(Dau=Aoa-GFLG),GnRH-III(Dau=Aoa-YRRL) and GnRH-III(Dau=Aoa)) showed similar cytostatic effectthat was higher on MCF-7 cells (IC 50 : 1-5 μM) than on HT-29 cells (IC 50 : 10-30 μM)(Table 1). Because the stability of the YRRL spacer was fairly low in human serum, onlythe other two <strong>com</strong>pounds were tested in vivo. The in vivo antitumor activity was evaluatedon HT-29 human colon carcinoma bearing SCID mice. GnRH-III(Dau=Aoa) and GnRH-III(Dau=Aoa-GFLG) bioconjugates injected 3 times at a dose of 15 mg/kg Dau content hadsignificant antitumor activity (tumor growth inhibition: 41% and 50%, respectively on theday 35 after tumor transplantation) (Figure 2). Mice treated with free Dau, 5 mg/kg or 2.5mg/kg body weight, died before the second treatment (till the day 20 or 23, respectively).Table 1.
