Addition of PARP1-inhibition enhances chemoradiotherapy and thermoradiotherapy when treating cervical cancer in an in vivo mouse model by Marloes IJff, Xionge Mei, Enzo M. Scutigliani, Hans M. Rodermond, Gregor G. W. van Bochove, Przemek M. Krawczyk, Nicolaas A. P. Franken, Lukas J. A. Stalpers, Johannes Crezee, Arlene L. Oei

“…In vivo mouse experiments show that PARP1-i enhances thermoradiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy by reduction of tumor volumes. Five cycles of treatment were applied with the following doses per cycle: irradiation 3 Gy, hyperthermia 1 h at 42 °C, cisplatin at 2 mg/kg, and twice PARP1-i at 50 mg/kg.Results: Quadruple treatment, combining radiotherapy, hyperthermia, cisplatin and PARP1-i, was very effective but also lead to severe side effects causing severe weight loss and death. …”
