MTT assay was performed simultaneously with a clonogenic assay to assess its validity on chemosensitivity test by using the cultured human urogenital carcinoma cell lines PC3, 19PC93, DU145 and T24. The drugs used were carboquone (CQ), adriamycin (ADM), cisplatin (CDDP) and pepleomycin (PLM). Dose response curves were drawn and 50% inhibition doses (ID50) were calculated and examined by t-test. The correlations between the results obtained from both assays were observed. For comparing antitumor intensity of drugs with each other, predicted antitumor activity (PAA) was calculated from the peak plasma concentration of the clinically used dose. High cytotoxicity of drug was considered if PAA greater than or equal to 1 was observed. The optical density (OD) was almost directly proportional to the number of cells. Good correlations between OD and colony number, or between ID50 from both assays were noted although the clonogenic assay is more sensitive than the MTT assay. Relative resistances between cell lines to a drug observed by the clonogenic assay were also maintained by the MTT assay. The chemosensitive intensity was CQ greater than ADM greater than CDDP greater than PLM, and the sequence was similar in both assays. PC3, DU145 and T24 were sensitive to CQ but 19PC93 was to CQ and ADM. Therefore, MTT assay was concluded as a useful method for chemosensitivity test, although the problem of normal cell contamination was left to be solved for clinical use.
