R-verapamil decreases anti-estrogen resistance in a breast cancer model.

Abstract:

:Drug resistance eventually limits the effectiveness of antiestrogens in breast cancer treatment. Pharmacological reversal of this refractoriness has been attempted with R-Verapamil, a well tolerated calcium channel blocker. This drug significantly decreased the incidence of lung foci after intravenous seeding of the R3230AC rat adenocarcinoma; this effect was correlated with reduction in the expression of P-glycoprotein. The simultaneous administration of antiestrogens with a non-toxic enantiomer of Verapamil was beneficial in the tumour model investigated.
