N2 - The orally active microtubule disrupting agent CYT997, previously reported by us, is potently cytotoxic to a variety of cancer cell lines in vitro and shows anti-tumor activity in vivo. In addition to its cytotoxic activity, CYT997 possesses antivascular effects on tumor vasculature. To further characterise the vascular disrupting activity of CYT997 in terms of dose and temporal effects, we studied the activity of the compound on endothelial cells in vitro and on tumor blood flow in vivo using a variety of techniques.
