Title:
COVALENT CONJUGATES OF TOPOISOMERASE I AND TOPOISOMERASE II INHIBITORS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO1998040104
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The present invention provides covalent conjugates of topoisomerase I and topoisomerase II inhibitors. Such compounds have a structure according to formula 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; andL is a linking group.The compounds are useful for inhibiting topoisomerase I and II enzymes, for promoting cellular differentiation, and for treating cancer.
