The estimator of growth curve of tumors (based on a single observation per tumor, viz. its size at detection), proposed by \textit{E. N. Atkinson}, the first author, \textit{B. W. Brown} and \textit{J. R. Thompson} [Math. Biosci. 67, 145-166 (1983; Zbl 0531.92004)] is analyzed. The results concern its asymptotic bias and MSE as well as the limiting behavior of the estimator treated as a stochastic process.
