Elucidation of Mechanisms of Topotecan-Induced Cell Death in Human Breast MCF-7 Cancer Cells by Gene Expression Analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2020
Topotecan is a clinically active anticancer agent for the management of various human tumors. While the principal mechanism of tumor cell killing by topotecan is due to its interactions with topoisomerase I and formation of DNA double-strand breaks ...

Inhalation delivery dramatically improves the efficacy of topotecan for the treatment of local and distant lung cancer

open access: yesDrug Delivery, 2021
Topotecan is potent anti-cancer drug approved for various malignancies but hematopoietic toxicities undermine its wider application and use of its most effective dose. This study aims to improve these limitations through inhalation-delivery.

DNA repair and cholesterol-mediated drug efflux induce dose-dependent chemoresistance in nutrient-deprived neuroblastoma cells

open access: yesiScience, 2021
Summary: Neuroblastoma is a solid, heterogeneous pediatric tumor. Chemotherapy is widely used to treat neuroblastoma. However, dose-dependent responses and chemoresistance mechanisms of neuroblastoma cells to anticancer drugs remain challenging. Here, we

The Lipophilic Purine Nucleoside—Tdp1 Inhibitor—Enhances DNA Damage Induced by Topotecan In Vitro and Potentiates the Antitumor Effect of Topotecan In Vivo

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
The use of cancer chemotherapy sensitizers is a promising approach to induce the effect of clinically used anticancer treatments. One of the interesting targets is Tyrosyl-DNA Phosphodiesterase 1 (Tdp1), a DNA-repair enzyme, that may prevent the action ...

Exploration of the intercellular heterogeneity of topotecan uptake into human breast cancer cells through compartmental modelling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A mathematical multi-cell model for the in vitro kinetics of the anti-cancer agent topotecan (TPT) following administration into a culture medium containing a population of human breast cancer cells (MCF-7 cell line) is described.

A phase I and pharmacokinetic study of intraperitoneal topotecan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Purpose: To evaluate the feasibility and pharmacology of intraperitoneal (IP) topotecan. Patients and methods: Fifteen patients with recurrent ovarian cancer in a phase I trial were treated with escalating IP topotecan doses (5-30 mg/m(2)) for ...

A coupled drug kinetics-cell cycle model to analyse the response of human cells to intervention by topotecan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A model describing the response of the growth of single human cells in the absence and presence of the anti-cancer agent topotecan (TPT) is presented. The model includes a novel coupling of both the kinetics of TPT and cell cycle responses to the agent ...

OUR EXPERIENCE WITH TOPOTECAN AS SECOND- LINE TREATMENT OF PATIENTS WITH RELAPSED SMALL CELL LUNG CANCER [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of IMAB, 2010
Objectives: Single agent intravenous Topotecan is an effective treatment for small cell lung cancer /SCLC/ after failure of first- line chemotherapy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of intravenous Topotecan in recurrent ...
