Biological target:
Pimonidazole hydrochloride is a Radiation-Sensitizing Agent.
In vitro activity:
In order to test this hypothesis, lymphocytes isolated from the spleens of C3H/HeN mice that had been immunised with pimonidazole-labelled 3152-PRO cells were subcultured and tested for their ability to lyse chromium-51 loaded, pimonidazole-labelled 3152-PRO cells in an in vitro assay. In a parallel study, commercially available, rabbit complement was tested for its ability to lyse pimonidazole-labelled V79-4 cells in the presence of monoclonal antibodies which recognise protein adducts of reductively activated pimonidazole. Complement-mediated cell lysis was measured by means of an MTT assay. Complement-mediated and cell-mediated lysis was observed at pimonidazole concentrations which, in themselves, do not produce cell killing.

In vivo activity:
The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the clinical feasibility of quantitative hypoxia detection with pimonidazole, a novel hypoxia marker, and to correlate hypoxia with S-phase markers of tumor proliferation. Hypoxic cells were recognized by immunohistochemical detection of pimonidazole using a mouse monoclonal antibody. Immunostaining with pimonidazole antibody was observed in 9 of 10 tumors, suggesting that hypoxia is a common occurrence in cervical carcinoma. Quantitatively, tumors that had large numbers of hypoxic cells had the greatest percentage of S-phase cells, but some tumors with smaller amounts of hypoxia also had substantial numbers of S-phase cells.
