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

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

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.

Intravenous (IV) topotecan is approved for the treatment of various malignancies including lung cancer but its clinical use is greatly undermined by severe hematopoietic toxicity. We hypothesized that inhalation delivery of topotecan would increase local
