Chondrosarcomas are malignant bone tumors, which do not respond to existing chemo- and radiotherapy. Preliminary studies could show that the the natural compound Garcinol strongly reduces proliferation and colony formation of these tumor cells. Additionally, Garcinol could re-sensitize chondrosarcoma cells to the chemotherapeutic Cisplatin. We therefore want to investigate the role of Garcinol as a new therapeutic option for chondrosarcoma.
