The inhibition of the progression of breast cancer growth by oral EGCG in the immunocompetant female mice (C57BL/6) allografted with mouse breast cancer (E0771) cells. EGCG at 50 to 100 mg/kg/day in drinking water for four weeks significantly reduced a growth curve of breast cancer monitored by the tumor cross section area by 65% (Figure 1A, P < 0.01; n = 8) and tumor weight (Figure 1B, 0.37 ± 0.15 vs. 1.16 ± 0.30 g; P < 0.01; n = 8), compared to the control group.
