Abstract：
:Combretastatin-A4 phosphate (cis-CA-4) is a tubulin-binding agent currently undergoing clinical trials as an anti-tumour drug. We have investigated whether CA-4 functions as a tumour-specific anti-vascular agent using the hyperplastic thyroid as a novel in vivo model of neovascularization. CA-4 elicited pathological changes in normal tissue, manifested as the induction of multiple, discrete intravascular thrombi. These vascular-damaging effects indicate that CA-4P does not function as a tumour-specific agent but targets neovasculature irrespective of the primary angiogenic stimulus.
