Topotecan
Topotecan (SKF104864) is an inhibitor of topoisomerase 1 and semisynthetic analogue of camptothecin [1].
Topotecan (SKF104864) has been reported to have a potent antitumor activity against tumors in murine models. In addition, Topotecan has also shown the potent effect against intravenously implanted P388 leukemia and both intravenously and subcutaneously implanted Lewis lung carcinoma. Topotecan has noted the activity against subcutaneously implanted solid tumors including chemorefractory tumors and human colon carcinoma xenograft HT-29. Topotecan has been found to induce regressions in the lung tumor model (Lewis lung carcinoma and B16 melanoma), compared to camptothecin and 9-amino-camptothecin. In the preclinical toxicology studies, Topotecan has been revealed to have a concentration-dependent, reversible and limited toxoicity to rapidly proliferation tissues such as bone marrow and gastro-intestinal epithelium [1].

Cell experiment:[1] | |
Cell lines |
Human glioma cell lines U251, U87, GSCs-U251 and GSCs-U87 |
Reaction Conditions |
0.02, 0.2, 2, 20 or 40 μmol/L topotecan for 12, 24 or 48 h incubation |
Applications |
Topotecan obviously inhibited proliferation of not only human glioma cells but also glioma stem cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. In addition, topotecan (3 μmol/L, 24 h) induced cell cycle arrest in G0/G1 and S phases and promoted apoptosis. |

Animal models |
Mouse models of aggressive pediatric solid tumor |
Dosage form |
1 mg/kg Once daily by oral gavage |
Applications |
Metronomic administration of topotecan and pazopanib showed a statistically significant antitumor activity compared with respective single agents in pediatric tumor mouse models, representing a valid option as a maintenance therapy in aggressive pediatric solid tumors. |
