The effect of L-glutamine and L-asparagine depletion by Acinetobacter L-glutaminase-L-asparaginase on the toxicity and antitumor activity of L-(alphaS,5S)-alpha-amino-3-chloro-4,5-dihydro-5-isoxazoleacetic acid (NSC-163501) was tested in mice. The LD50 of six daily doses of NSC-163501 in BDF1 female mice decreased from 7.5 to 0.3 mg/kg/day by combination treatment with the enzyme. Enzyme therapy also decreased the dose of NSC-163501 needed for maximal prolongation of survival in these mice inoculated with L1210 leukemia. Nevertheless, the combination did not prolong survival in L1210-bearing mice beyond that of higher doses of NSC-163501 alone. In contrast, the combination of enzyme plus NSC-163501 inhibited the growth of established sc implanted Ehrlich ascites carcinoma in ICRf male mice much more than either agent alone. Treatment with Acinetobacter L-glutaminase-L-asparaginase decreased the L-asparagine and L-glutamine levels in acid extracts of the Ehrlich tumor. NSC-163501 did not affect the amide levels or alter the decrease produced by enzyme therapy.
