TNF and osteosarcoma: Rats (Wag/Rij) carrying a subcutaneously transplanted osteosarcoma in the hind leg received a single intravenous dose of recombinant human (rh) TNF-alpha, either at normothermia or at hyperthermia, by positioning the tumour bearing hind leg in a water bath of 43 degrees C. Dose-effect curves for lethality and tumour cure were established and LD50 and TCD50 values were calculated.
