Oxi8007, a novel vascular disrupting agent, showed rapid
and highly selective shutdown of tumor vasculature. In
this study we explored the onset of hypoxia with FREDOM,
a
19
F
oxygen mapping technique, to assess the pO
2
changes
following the administration of Oxi8007 at two different
doses using an orthotopic breast cancer mouse model.
Both dose groups showed rapid decrease of pO
2
though
with a slower rate accompanying the lower dose. PO
2
maps
revealed heterogeneous responses to the drug.
