indomethacin and Uveal Neoplasms

indomethacin has been researched along with Uveal Neoplasms in 1 studies

Indomethacin: A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent (NSAID) that inhibits CYCLOOXYGENASE, which is necessary for the formation of PROSTAGLANDINS and other AUTACOIDS. It also inhibits the motility of POLYMORPHONUCLEAR LEUKOCYTES.
indometacin : A member of the class of indole-3-acetic acids that is indole-3-acetic acid in which the indole ring is substituted at positions 1, 2 and 5 by p-chlorobenzoyl, methyl, and methoxy groups, respectively. A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, it is used in the treatment of musculoskeletal and joint disorders including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, bursitis and tendinitis.

Uveal Neoplasms: Tumors or cancer of the UVEA.

"As a result of preclinical data demonstrating the antitumour and antimetastatic efficiency of indomethacin in murine models, and the clinical observation of occasional tumour regression in patients with advanced melanoma treated with indomethacin together with ranitidine, a Phase II study was performed of prolonged administration of these two oral agents in combination."9.08Oral indomethacin and ranitidine in advanced melanoma: a phase II study.
