Cytotoxicity of chlorambucil immobilized on magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles Fe3O4
Chlorambucil is a nitrogen mustard alkylating agent used for the treatment of various malignant and non‐malignant cancers. The use of the chemotherapeutic is limited by its toxic side effects which precludes the use of optimal doses.

Polymorphism in glutathione S-transferase P1 is associated with susceptibility to chemotherapyinduced leukemia [PDF]
Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) detoxify potentially mutagenic and toxic DNA-reactive electrophiles, including metabolites of several chemotherapeutic agents, some of which are suspected human carcinogens.

Long-term efficacy and safety of first-line ibrutinib treatment for patients with CLL/SLL: 5 years of follow-up from the phase 3 RESONATE-2 study. [PDF]
RESONATE-2 is a phase 3 study of first-line ibrutinib versus chlorambucil in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). Patients aged ≥65 years (n = 269) were randomized 1:1 to once-daily ibrutinib 420 mg continuously or ...

Antibody as carrier of chlorambucil [PDF]
A surface-localizing heterologous antibody against the mouse Ehrlich ascites carcinoma could be bound to chlorambucil without causing the loss of alkylating activity of chlorambucil or interfering with the reactivity of the antibody with tumor cells. Chlorambucil, when bound to the antibody, was a much more effective tumor inhibitor, both in vitro and ...

Discovery of a potent olaparib–chlorambucil hybrid inhibitor of PARP1 for the treatment of cancer
Introduction: Development of Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors has been extensively studied in cancer treatment. Olaparib, the first approved PARP inhibitor, showed potency in the inhibition of both BRCA (breast cancer associated)-mutated ...

Unanticipated differences between α- and γ-diaminobutyric acid-linked hairpin polyamide-alkylator conjugates [PDF]
Hairpin polyamide–chlorambucil conjugates containing an {alpha}-diaminobutyric acid ({alpha}-DABA) turn moiety are compared to their constitutional isomers containing the well-characterized {gamma}-DABA turn.

Chlorambucil-Bearing Hybrid Molecules in the Development of Potential Anticancer Agents
Increasing cases of cancer have been a primary concern in recent decades. Developing new chemotherapeutics is challenging and has been faced with limitations, such as multidrug resistance, poor specificity, selectivity, and toxicity.

Geldanamycin and herbimycin A induce apoptotic killing of B chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells and augment the cells' sensitivity to cytotoxic drugs. [PDF]
We studied the actions of geldanamycin (GA) and herbimycin A (HMA), inhibitors of the chaperone proteins Hsp90 and GRP94, on B chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cells in vitro.
