Polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid administered intraperitoneally inhibits (i) the formation of skin tumors induced by a single topical application of 9,10-dimethylbenzanthracene followed by weekly applications of croton oil and (ii) the formation of skin tumors induced by a single large application of 9,10-dimethylbenzanthracene.
