Hybrid topoisomerase I and HDAC inhibitors as dual action anticancer agents
Recent studies have shown that HDAC inhibitors act synergistically with camptothecin derivatives in combination therapies. To exploit this synergy, new hybrid molecules targeting simultaneously topoisomerase I and HDAC were designed. In particular, a selected multivalent agent containing a camptothe...

Sumario: | Recent studies have shown that HDAC inhibitors act synergistically with camptothecin derivatives in combination therapies. To exploit this synergy, new hybrid molecules targeting simultaneously topoisomerase I and HDAC were designed. In particular, a selected multivalent agent containing a camptothecin and a SAHA-like template showed a broad spectrum of antiproliferative activity, with IC(50) values in the nanomolar range. Preliminary in vivo results indicated a strong antitumor activity on human mesothelioma primary cell line MM473 orthotopically xenografted in CD-1 nude mice and very high tolerability. |
