Abstract:
Compounds of Formulas I-II are described, along with methods of using such compounds for the treatment of cancer and pharmeutical formulations thereof.
Abstract:
The present invention provides covalent conjugates of topoisomerase I and topoisomerase II inhibitors. Such compounds have a structure according to formula I: TI—L—TII (I) wherein: TI is a topoisomerase I inhibitor such as a camptothecin group; TII is a topoisomerase II inhibitor such as an amsacrine, ellipticine, epipodophyllotoxin, or anthracycline antibiotic group; and L is a linking group. The compounds are useful for inhibiting topoisomerase I and II enzymes, for promoting cellular differentiation, and for treating cancer.
