LY 231514 or MTA is a multi-targeted antifolate which has been used as an anticancer drug. It is an analogue of folic acid which has shown antitumour activity against various malignancies, particularly mesothelioma and colon cancer. For cancers with peritoneal surfaces extension, the advantage of intraperitoneal chemotherapy over intravenous chemotherapy administration is the high drug concentration that can be achieved locally. Using a rat model, this study was designed to compare the pharmacokinetics and tissue adsorption of intraperitoneal vs intravenous MTA.
