Pharmaceutical Chemistry Journal Aims and scope

Simultaneous administration of a copolymer of N-vinylpyrrolidone and 2-methyl-5-vinylpyridine and cytostatic agents to mice with a variety of implanted tumors was found to increase treatment efficacy, promoting increases in survival time. This effect is of interest for further studies of the possible use of copolymer as an immunomodulator in chemotherapy.
