Camptothecins

Drugs, 2002
Camptothecin analogues and derivatives appear to exert their antitumour activity by binding to topoisomerase I and have shown significant activity against a broad range of tumours. In general, camptothecins are not substrates for either the multidrug-resistance P-glycoprotein or the multidrug-resistance-associated protein (MRP).

The camptothecins

The Lancet, 2003
Supported by detailed understanding of their mechanism of action, and facilitated by chemical manipulations that have amplified their solubility, the camptothecins have advanced to the forefront of several areas of therapeutic and developmental chemotherapy. Additive and synergistic laboratory interactions with other cytotoxic drugs have been exploited

Analogs of camptothecin

Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 1975
Several compounds having portions of the camptothecin ring system were prepared. These compounds were screened against L1210 lymphoid leukemia with negative results. Two of the analogs which contained the pyridine and hydroxylactone D and E rings were also screened for inhibition of DNA and RNA syntheses in HeLa cells.

Camptothecin Delivery Methods

Pharmaceutical Research, 2002
Camptothecin has shown significant antitumor activity to lung, ovarian, breast, pancreas, and stomach cancers. Camptothecin, however, like a number of other potent anticancer agents such as paclitaxel, is extremely water insoluble. Furthermore, pharmacology studies have determined that prolonged schedules of administration given continuously are ...

Camptothecin induced DDX5 degradation increased the camptothecin resistance of osteosarcoma

Experimental Cell Research, 2020
Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common primary malignant bone tumor in children and adolescents. Unfortunately, chemo-resistance is a huge obstacle in the treatment of OS. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms of OS chemo-resistance still remain unknown.

Review Camptothecin: Current Perspectives

Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2006
The review provides a detailed discussion of recent advances in the medicinal chemistry of camptothecin, a potent antitumor agent that targets topoisomerase I. Thousands of CPT derivatives have been synthesized. Two of them, Topotecan and Irinotecan, are commercially approved for use in clinic as antitumor agents while more are still in clinic trials ...

Camptothecins in clinical development

Expert Opinion on Investigational Drugs, 2004
Following the realisation that DNA topoisomerase I is a useful therapeutic target to be exploited for the design of potential inhibitors, topoisomerase I inhibitors now represent an established class of effective agents. In spite of intense efforts in the field, only camptothecins have a clinical relevance.

Pharmacology of Camptothecin Esters

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2000
Abstract: An intact lactone ring of camptothecins is a structural requirement for their anticancer activity. Propionate esters of camptothecin (CPT) and 9‐nitrocamptothecin (9NC), CZ48 and CZ112, respectively, have been synthesized as derivatives resistant to lactone hydrolysis and are chemotherapeutically active.
