Abstract excerpt
Data on hepatocellular foci and tumors for four hepatocarcinogens are analyzed within the framework of a two-mutation model of oncogenesis to determine the biological factor(s) that control the values of N in Druckery's formula DTN = K, where T is the time to 50% tumor incidence at a daily dose D. The two-mutation oncogenic model was found to adequately reproduce the empirical data for all four hepatocarcinogens....
