Hi - These are all measured endpoints in various studies. Answers a,b are similar methods for estimating the effect upon growth - answer b is an example of a threshold type measurement. A company which offers services such as these: http://www.artp.org/pros-tum/BAS_pt27e.htm A description of cancer research including studies which use "time to death" http://www.rxlist.com/cgi/generic2/nilutam_cp.htm An abstract describing a study using lung weight to measure tumor growth: http://www.oncolyticsbiotech.com/022801p1.html search: Google: drug tumor animal model "tumor growth" Google: tumor animal model "time to death" Google: tumor animal model "lung weight" |
