Vascular discrupting agents (VDAs) induce tumor hypoxia
within 3 hours in preclinical models. Combretastatin A4
phosphate (CA4P) is the lead compound of this agents
class. The present work correlates a follow-up on two
tumor models of both tumor oxygenation and tumor
hemodynamics after CA4P administration. Mapping of tumor
oxygenation was assessed with MOBILE (Mapping of
Oxygen By Imaging Lipids relaxation Enhancement) a
non-invasive MRI method based on the changes in the
relaxation properties of the tissue lipids protons
whereas tumor hemodynamics (Ktrans and vp) variations
were evaluated by DCE-MRI on same tumor models.
