  1. 01AnimalAnimal study (in vivo)Efficacy outcome

    In mice with peritoneal metastases of colorectal carcinoma, overall survival in Tα1-treated mice was longer than in HIPEC-treated mice.

    In plain wordsIn mice with colorectal cancer spread, mice given thymosin alpha‑1 lived longer than mice given heated chemotherapy only.

    Summary
    The OS of Tα1 treated mice significantly improved compared to HIPEC-treated mice (16.3 ± 0.8 vs 14.1 ± 0.6 days, respectively, P = 0.02)

    Summary · context
    We used an experimental murine model of PM-CRC combined with mitomycin (MMC)-based HIPEC.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone1

In this study, Thymosin alpha-1 was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking Thymosin alpha-1.

    In mice with peritoneal metastases of colorectal carcinoma, overall survival in the Tα1-treated group (tested as an add-on to HIPEC) was longer than in sham-treated mice.
