| Rubitecan Usage And Synthesis |
| Description | Rubitecan, marketed by Supergen as Orathecin, is a promising oral treatment for solid melanoma, prostate, breast, ovarian, and other cancers, as well as leukemia. It is a derivative of camptothecin, a topoisomerase inhibitor known from Chinese Traditional Medicine. It selectively targets the critical S-stage of cellular reproduction – particularly in acidic environments, as in many cancer cells – relaxing DNA supercoiling and generating lethal breaks in the DNA. Due to insolubility, its biological delivery mechanism is not yet effective, and it has not been approved for clinical use.

| | Description | Rubitecan is a DNA topoisomerase I inhibitor. It inhibits DNA topoisomerase I and increases the fraction of supercoiled DNA in a cell-free assay in a concentration-dependent manner. Rubitecan inhibits the growth of A121 ovarian and H460 lung cancer cells (IC50s = 4 and 2 nM, respectively). It also inhibits the growth of doxorubicin-susceptible and -resistant MCF-7 breast cancer cells (IC50s = 2 and 3 nM, respectively). Rubitecan (4 mg/kg twice per week) reduces tumor growth in a U937 leukemia mouse xenograft model. | | Chemical Properties | Yellow Amorphous Powder | | Uses | Semisynthetic camptothecin which inhibits DNA topoisomerase I.
