The response of 786-O RCC xenografts to sunitinib was
investigated using susceptibility contrast MRI with
USPIO particles. Fractional blood volume (fBV) was
significantly reduced after 2 weeks daily treatment in
the absence of any change in tumour volume. This reduced
fBV was maintained in 786-O xenografts exhibiting
acquired resistance to sunitinib.
