Fish Oil, Plant Polyphenols, and Their Combinations Have No Tumor Growth Promoting Effects on Human Lung and Colon Carcinoma Xenograft Mice

The goal of this study was to evaluate if combinations of ingredients with known anti-cachexia benefits (Fish oil-FO with either curcumin or Green tea extract-GTE), have adverse effects on tumor growth, using human carcinoma xenograft mice models. FO (EPA/DHA 360 mg/kg bw), GTE (90 mg/kg bw), and curcumin (180 mg/kg bw) were administered orally, alone or in combination, to nude mice bearing either A549 human non-small cell lung carcinoma or SW620 human colon carcinoma tumors. Bodyweight, tumor growth, survival time, and other clinical endpoints were assessed. The ingredients either alone or in combinations were well tolerated in both lung and colon tumor-bearing mice. There were no significant group differences between individual or combination treatments for tumor growth (A549 or SW620) as measured by the median time in days to endpoint of tumor volume (TTE). TTE results indicate that these ingredients (alone or combinations) did not adversely impact tumor growth. No significant differences in body weights or survival were observed between controls and treatment groups indicating no adverse health effects of the ingredients. In conclusion, FO, GTE or curcumin administered as monotherapies and in combination were well tolerated and displayed no adverse effects on tumor growth in mouse xenograft models of lung and colon cancer.
