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

Journal 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 ...

Continuous and bolus intraventricular topotecan prolong survival in a mouse model of leptomeningeal medulloblastoma.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Leptomeningeal metastasis remains a difficult clinical challenge. Some success has been achieved by direct administration of therapeutics into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) circumventing limitations imposed by the blood brain barrier.

Systematic Review of topotecan (Hycamtin) in relapsed small cell lung cancer

BMC Cancer, 2010
Background To undertake a systematic review of the available data for oral and intravenous topotecan in adults with relapsed small cell lung cancer (SCLC) for whom re-treatment with the first line regimen is not considered appropriate.

Delayed vaccine-induced CD8+ T cell expansion by topoisomerase I inhibition mediates enhanced CD70-dependent tumor eradication

Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer, 2023
Background The survival of patients with cervical cancer who are treated with cisplatin in conjunction with the topoisomerase I inhibitor topotecan is enhanced when compared with patients treated with only one of these chemotherapeutics.

Carboplatin +/- topotecan ophthalmic artery chemosurgery for intraocular retinoblastoma. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
PURPOSE: Carboplatin administered systemically or periocularly can result in dramatic and prompt regression of retinoblastoma. However, both routes are rarely curative alone and have undesirable side effects.

The inhibition of autophagy sensitises colon cancer cells with wild-type p53 but not mutant p53 to topotecan treatment.

PLoS ONE, 2012
BackgroundTopotecan produces DNA damage that induces autophagy in cancer cells. In this study, sensitising topotecan to colon cancer cells with different P53 status via modulation of autophagy was examined.Methodology/principal findingsThe DNA damage ...

Generation of the Camptothecin Scaffold by a Flavin‐Catalyzed Photooxidative Skeletal Reorganization

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The biosynthetic pathway of the anticancer drug precursor camptothecin involves an enigmatic skeletal reorganization from a 6/5/6 tetrahydro‐β‐carboline to a 6/6/5 pyrroloquinoline ring system. Here, we show that this transformation can be achieved by photooxidation with flavin cofactors, such as flavin mononucleotide (FMN) as catalysts.

Structural and dynamical effects induced by the anticancer drug topotecan on the human topoisomerase I - DNA complex. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2010
BACKGROUND: Human topoisomerase I catalyzes the relaxation of DNA supercoils in fundamental cell processes like transcription, replication and chromosomal segregation. It is the only target of the camptothecin family of anticancer drugs.

Lesser Toxicities of Belotecan in Patients with Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Retrospective Single-Center Study of Camptothecin Analogs

Canadian Respiratory Journal, 2016
Purpose. Topotecan and belotecan are camptothecin derivatives that are used to treat small cell lung cancer (SCLC). This study compared the toxicities and efficacies of belotecan and topotecan monotherapies in patients with SCLC. Methods.
