Research Excerpts
Overview
Merbarone, NSC 336628, is an investigational anticancer drug with activity against experimental animal tumors including melanoma. Merbarone is a catalytic inhibitor of DNA topoisomerase (topo) II that does not stabilize DNA-topo II cleavable complexes.
Effects
Excerpt | Reference | Relevance |
---|---|---|
"Merbarone has previously been shown to have antitumor activity of unknown mechanism in P388 and L1210 tumor models (A.

Bartus, JO; Drake, FH; Hertzberg, RP; Hofmann, GA; Johnson, RK; Mattern, MR; Mirabelli, CK; Mong, SM, 1989) | 1.95 |

"Merbarone failed to increase colony formation." | ( Effects of DNA topoisomerase II inhibitors on human bone marrow progenitor cells. Berney, JJ; Chresta, CM; Delgado, C; Francis, GE; Patel, P; Tejedor, MC, 1994) | 1.01 |
Dosage Studied
Excerpt | Relevance | Reference |
---|---|---|
" Preclinical studies suggested that the antitumor effects of this drug were schedule dependent, since repeated dosing increased killing of tumor cells when compared to intermittent injections." | ( Phase I clinical and pharmacological study of merbarone.

" Seventeen patients were treated at a starting dose of 1000 mg/m2/day for 5 days by continuous intravenous infusion; the dose was escalated in accordance with the toxicity experienced, and no dosage reductions owing to toxicity were required." | ( A phase II study of merbarone in patients with adenocarcinoma of the pancreas.
