(A) Tumor volume fold change over time (14 days). Decrease in mean tumor volume + SEM was observed with chemotherapy alone (chemosenstive tumor line). (B) FACS analysis of 100,000 cells MC1 tumor cells for CD44+/CD24−, ALDF. Data were depicted as Mean + SEM. Non-significant decrease in TIC markers (ALDF, CD44+/CD24) with Stat3 inhibitor compared to chemotherapy alone was observed. (C) Mammosphere forming efficiency of tumor cells seeded at 10,000 cells/ml. Data depicted as Mean + SEM. Non-significant decrease in MSFE with C188 compared to chemotherapy alone was observed.
