Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent decades, Pt(II)-based chemotherapy drugs, such as cisplatin, oxaliplatin, and carboplatin, have been among the most effective drugs for cancer treatment. They have been widely used in various malignant solid tumors, including lung cancer, colorectal cancer, testicular cancer, ovarian cancer, bladder cancer, and head and neck cancer. Despite the well-documented success, there are still challenges to be addressed, such as intrinsic and acquired resistance, as well as side effects including nephrotoxicity, neurotoxicity, and cardiotoxicity. To maximize their effectiveness and broaden their therapeutic potential, researchers have devoted a lot of effort to exploring new derivatives and combination therapies. Among these efforts, Pt(IV) complexes, acting as prodrugs that can be activated to release active Pt(II) species, have exhibited great promise. Tremendous efforts have been devoted to exploring new synthesis approaches, elucidating structure-activity relationships, and designing novel Pt(IV) complexes that incorporate biologically active or therapeutically effective ligands. The aim is to enhance drug efficiency through increasing cytotoxicity, achieving more targeted delivery, enabling oral availability, and circumventing drug resistance, among other goals.The specific areas of focus include i) Analysis of the reduction capacity, including the determination of reduction potential (Ep) and the assessment of reduction in the presence of small reducing agents like ascorbic acid; ii) lipophilicity versus cellular accumulation; iii) stability study; iv) binding with 9-methylguanine (a simple DNA model); v) biological activities including cytotoxicity, ROS generation, cellular accumulation, COX inhibition, apoptosis induction, and more.

This book was released on 2018-02-05 with total page 588 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 18, entitled Metallo-Drugs: Development and Action of Anticancer Agents of the series Metal Ions in Life Sciences centers on biological, medicinal inorganic chemistry. The serendipitous discovery of the antitumor activity of cis-diamminodichloroplatinum(II) (cisplatin) by Barnett Rosenberg in the 1960s is a landmark in metallodrug-based chemotherapy. The success of cisplatin in the clinic, followed by oxaliplatin and carboplatin, along with their drawbacks relating mainly to resistance development and severe toxicity, initiated research on polynuclear platinum complexes and on Pt(IV) complexes as prodrugs. Furthermore, the indicated shortcomings led to the exploration of other transition and main group metal ions, among them Ru(II/III), Au(I/III), Ti(IV), V(IV/V), and Ga(III) including also the essential metal ions Fe(II/III), Cu(I/II), and Zn(II). Ionic as well as covalent and non-covalent interactions between structurally very different complexes and biomolecules like nucleic acids, proteins, and carbohydrates are studied and discussed with regard to their possible anticancer actions. Hence, MILS-18 summarizes the research at the forefront of medicinal inorganic chemistry, including studies on the next-generation, tailor-made anticancer drugs. All this and more is treated in an authoritative and timely manner in the 17 stimulating chapters of this book, written by 39 internationally recognized experts from 10 nations (from the US via Europe to China and Australia). The impact of this vibrant research area is manifested by more than 2700 references, nearly 150 illustrations (more than half in color) and several comprehensive tables. Metallo-Drugs: Development and Action of Anticancer Agents is an essential resource for scientists working in the wide range from enzymology, material sciences, analytical, organic, and inorganic biochemistry all the way through to medicine including the clinic ... not forgetting that it also provides excellent information for teaching.

Download or read book Synthetic Strategies for the Design of Platinum Anticancer Drug Candidates written by Justin Jeff Wilson and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (cont'd) Chapter 6. Synthesis, Characterization, and Cytotoxicity of Platinum(IV) Dicarbamate Complexes The reaction of cis,cis,trans-[Pt(NH3)2Cl2(OH)2] with alkyl and aryl isocyanates (RNCO) in DMF afforded dicarbamate complexes of the general formula cis,cis,trans- [Pt(NH 3)2Cl 2(O 2CNHR)2]. The resulting complexes were fully characterized by X-ray crystallography, multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, and cyclic voltammetry. The anticancer activities of these complexes were assessed in human lung cancer (A549) and human lung fibroblast (MRC-5) cell lines. Although no clear structure-activity relationships could be delineated, the complexes exhibited activity on the same order of magnitude as that of the clinically established drug cisplatin. Therefore, the reaction of cis,cis,trans-[Pt(NH3)2Cl 2(OH)2] with isocyanates provides a powerful new synthetic pathway to functionalize platinum(IV) anticancer agents. Appendix A. Aqueous Electrochemistry of a Platinum(IV) Prodrug Electrochemical studies of cis,cis,trans-[Pt(NH3)2Cl2(OAc) 2] in aqueous media were carried out. Cyclic voltammetry in pH 7.4 phosphate-buffered saline with glassy carbon and Pt disk working electrodes gave substantially different peak potentials for the irreversible reduction feature. Under these conditions, the glassy carbon electrode was plated with platinum metal derived from the platinum(IV) complex, as determined by cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry experiments. The bulk electrolysis of cis,cis,trans-[Pt(NH3)2Cl2(OAc)2] in aqueous solution at a carbon felt working electrode was investigated by 1H NMR spectroscopy. These studies indicate ligand loss upon reduction from both axial and equatorial sites of the platinum(IV) complex. Appendix B. Targeting the Mitochondria with Platinum Anticancer Agents using Mitochondria-Penetrating Peptides Early results of a collaborative effort with the lab of Professor Shana 0. Kelley at the University of Toronto to deliver platinum anticancer agents to the mitochondria are presented. Succinylacetone (Hsuccac) was used as a leaving group ligand for a cis-diammineplatinum(II) complex. The complex [Pt(succac)(NH 3)2](NO3), which contains a terminal, uncoordinated carboxylic acid functional group, was prepared and fully characterized. This complex was conjugated to a mitochondria-penetrating peptide (MPP) using standard solid-phase coupling chemistry. The anticancer activity of the Pt-MPP construct was tested in both wild-type and cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer cell lines, A2780 and A2780CP70. Although less potent than cisplatin, the construct is equally toxic to both cell lines, thereby indicating that targeting the mitochondria provides a viable strategy for circumventing resistance to platinum drugs. Appendix C. Synthesis and Characterization of Several Novel Platinum Complexes Throughout the course of this thesis work, several platinum complexes were synthesized and characterized, but ultimately not fully pursued as potential anticancer agents. These species include platinum compounds with dichloroacetate, 2,2'-bis(1- methylimidazolyl)phenylmethoxymethane (BIPhMe), nitrogen mustard-containing, and nitroimidazole-derivatized ligands. The syntheses and characterization of these compounds are reported. Crystal structures are described for several of them.

Download or read book Cisplatin written by Bernhard Lippert and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 1999 with total page 628 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 30 years after its discovery as an antitumor agent, cisplatin represents today one of the most successful drugs in chemotherapy. This book is intended to reminisce this event, to take inventory, and to point out new lines of development in this field. Divided in 6 sections and 22 chapters, the book provides an up-to-date account on topics such as - the chemistry and biochemistry of cisplatin, - the clinical status of Pt anticancer drugs, - the impact of cisplatin on inorganic and coordination chemistry, - new developments in drug design, testing and delivery. It also includes a chapter describing the historical development of the discovery of cisplatin. The ultimate question - How does cisplatin kill a cell? - is yet to be answered, but there are now new links suggesting how Pt binding to DNA may trigger a cascade of cellular reactions that eventually result in apoptosis. p53 and a series of damage recognition proteins of the HMG-domain family appear to be involved. The book addresses the problem of mutagenicity of Pt drugs and raises the question of the possible relevance of the minor DNA adducts, e.g. of interstrand cross-links, and the possible use of trans-(NH3)2Pt(II)-modified oligonucleotides in antisense and antigene strategies. Our present understanding of reactions of cisplatin with DNA is based upon numerous model studies (from isolated model nucleobases to short DNA fragments) and application of a large body of spectroscopic and other physico-chemical techniques. Thanks to these efforts there is presently no other metal ion whose reactions with nucleic acids are better understood than Pt. In a series of chapters, basic studies on the interactions of Pt electrophiles with nucleobases, oligonucleotides, DNA, amino acids, peptides and proteins are reported, which use, among others, sophisticated NMR techniques or X-ray crystallography, to get remarkable understanding of details on such reactions. Reactivity of cisplatin, once bound to DNA and formerly believed to be inert enough to stay, is an emerging phenomenon. It has (not yet) widely been studied but is potentially extremely important. Medicinal bioinorganic chemistry - the role of metal compounds in medicine - has received an enormous boost from cisplatin, and so has bioinorganic chemistry as a whole. There is hardly a better example than cisplatin to demonstrate what bioinorganic chemistry is all about: The marriage between classic inorganic (coordination) chemistry and the other life sciences - medicine, pharmacy, biology, biochemistry. Cisplatin has left its mark also on areas that are generally considered largely inorganic. The subject of mixed-valance Pt compounds is an example: From the sleeping beauty it made its way to the headlines of scientific journals, thanks to a class of novel Pt antitumor agents, the so-called "platinum pyrimidine blues". In the aftermath diplatinum (III) compounds were recognized and studies in large numbers, and now an organometalic chemistry of these diplatinum (III) species is beginning to emerge. The final section of the book is concerned with new developments such as novel di- and trinuclear Pt(II) drugs with DNA binding properties different from those of cisplatin, with orally active Pt(IV) drugs which are presently in clinical studies, and with attempts to modify combinatorial chemistry in such a way that it may become applicable to fast screening of Pt antitumor drugs. The potential of including computational methods in solving questions of Pt-DNA interactions is critically dealt with in the concluding chapter.

Download or read book Anti Cancer Activity of Platinum Complexes written by Shiju C and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-10 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some of the platinum complexes such as Cisplatin, carboplatin, and oxaliplatin are the FDA-approved members of the platinum anticancer drug family. Cisplatin, as one of the leading metal-based drugs, is widely used in the treatment of cancer. Significant side effects and drug resistance, however, have limited its clinical applications. These compounds induce apoptosis in tumor cells by binding to nuclear DNA, forming a variety of structural adducts and triggering cellular responses. Advances in biocoordination chemistry are crucial for improving the design of compounds to reduce toxic side effects and understand their mechanisms of action. In this report we present the development of platinum complexes such as platinum(II)-amine complexes, platinum(IV)-amine complexes, multi nuclear platinum complexes and some other platinum complexes as anti-cancer agents, with the purpose of providing an insight into the benefits of, and reasons for, their success.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was a great pleasure and honour to have been invited to attend this Seminar and to present a final impression. The association in this field between the Chester Beatty Research Institute and Dr. Rosenberg's School at East Lansing is something which I specially value and many would doubtless like to know how it came about. In the course of its work in carcinogenesis and on chemotherapy over many years, the Chester Beatty Research Institute was frequently drawn to the importance of many metals - as for example lead, iron, metalloid arsenic and the metalloid quali ties of the carcinogenic hydrocarbons. Interest started in platinum many years ago, following the possibility, c1aimed by others, that various complexes between the metal and mercaptopurine might possess significant chemotherapeutic properties. Va rious attempts to confirm such findings ended, however, in complete failure. Interest in platinum was revived by the fresh observations of Dr. Rosenberg and his collea gues, and here the outcome was entirely different. Very soon it was possible to con firm the intense growth-inhibitory properties of cis-platinum (II) diamminedi chloride and related substances. After communicating these results to Dr. Rosenberg, it was a pleasure to welcome hirn in London where he gave a Seminar which greatly engaged the interest of many of the staff. Later, several of these were to enjoy Dr. Rosenberg's hospitality at an international conference on the subject to be held in East Lansing, where many rapidly developing aspects were open for discussion.

Download or read book Platinum and Other Metal Coordination Compounds in Cancer Chemotherapy written by Stephen B. Howell and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1991 with total page 563 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taken together the data presented in this review, and work by many other investigators, support the notion that DNA excision repair is important in a tumor cell's resistance to platinum compounds. Inhibition of this repair system by combination chemotherapy with the excision repair inhibitors HU and Ara-C produces synergistic cell kills and increased levels and persistance of DNA interstrand crosslinks. The studies with cis-DDP and ~-DDP in combination with UV induced thymine dimers suggest that there may be competition for DNA repair enzymes between the dimer and the platinum lesion. Whether the competing lesion is an intrastrand crosslink, interstrand crosslink, or platinum monoadduct (or all of these lesions) cannot be determined. The similarity between an intrastrand crosslink and a cyclobutane dimer suggests that these lesions may compete for repair. However, the increased peak levels of interstrand crosslinks, and increased persistence of these lesions at later time points suggest that this lesion may also be a substrate for the repair system. These observations may be of clinical relevance. Recently Dr. Kathy Albain of our institution has completed a Phase III I study using a 12 hour pretreatment with HU and Ara-C in patients prior to their cis-DDP therapy. She observed a significant number of responders in this trial (54). She is currently completing a second Phase IIII study substituting IV HU for the oral formulation. We anticipate initiating other clinical trials based upon these observations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medicinal Chemistry of Anticancer Drugs, Second Edition, provides an updated treatment from the point of view of medicinal chemistry and drug design, focusing on the mechanism of action of antitumor drugs from the molecular level, and on the relationship between chemical structure and chemical and biochemical reactivity of antitumor agents. Antitumor chemotherapy is a very active field of research, and a huge amount of information on the topic is generated every year. Cytotoxic chemotherapy is gradually being supplemented by a new generation of drugs that recognize specific targets on the surface or inside cancer cells, and resistance to antitumor drugs continues to be investigated. While these therapies are in their infancy, they hold promise of more effective therapies with fewer side effects. Although many books are available that deal with clinical aspects of cancer chemotherapy, this book provides a sorely needed update from the point of view of medicinal chemistry and drug design. Presents information in a clear and concise way using a large number of figures Historical background provides insights on how the process of drug discovery in the anticancer field has evolved Extensive references to primary literature
