Oncology (including Cancer) Objective: The present study was carried out to investigate the antiproliferative effects of simvastatin involving Human Squamous Nasal Cell Carcinoma (RPMI 2650 cell line), which is one of the most common head and neck cancers with the highest incidence and mortality rates in Asian countries. The anti-cancer effects of simvastatin in NPC have not yet been investigated in depth, hence it will be illustrated in the present study.

Simvastatin for 72 h significantly reduced cell growth as compared to 48 and 24 h pre-incubation with simvastatin treatment. After 72 h incubation with 0.1 mg/ml, 0.4 mg/ml and 3.0 mg/ml simvastatin, the cell viability decreased from 100% in treated control cells to 23%, 21% and 14% respectively. Conclusions: This finding demonstrate the potential of simvastatin and probably may have therapeutic benefit for NPC cell growth.
