F 11782, a dual inhibitor of topoisomerases I and II with an original mechanism of action in vitro, and markedly superior in vivo antitumour activity, relative to three other dual topoisomerase inhibitors, intoplicin, aclarubicin and TAS-103.

    F 11782 (2",3"-bis pentafluorophenoxyacetyl-4",6"-ethylidene-beta-D-glucoside of 4'-phosphate-4'-dimethylepipodophyllotoxin, di-N-methyl glucamine salt) is a newly synthesized dual catalytic inhibitor of topoisomerases I and II with major in vivo antitumour activity. In this study, we compared and contrasted F 11782 with three other known inhibitors of both these nuclear enzymes, namely aclarubicin. intoplicin and TAS-103, and established its novel mechanism of action.. In vitro growth-inhibitory effects against a panel of murine and tumour cell lines were measured by cell counting, clonogenicity or tetrazolium metabolic dye (MTT) assays. In vivo antitumour activities were evaluated against two murine tumour models (i.v. P388 leukaemia and s.c. B16 melanoma). Finally, interactions with either DNA or DNA-topoisomerases were determined using various methodologies: DNA-intercalator displacement, pBR322 DNA relaxation, kDNA decatenation, topoisomerase II extractability measurements, stabilization of topoisomerase-induced cleavable complexes (CC) in vitro and in cells, and gel retardation assays.. F 11782 had a different profile of sensitivities and proved generally less cytotoxic than the other dual inhibitors tested in vitro, while showing significantly superior antitumour activity in vivo. F 11782, which did not stabilize CC either in vitro or in cells, was the only compound of this series capable of inhibiting the catalytic activity of both DNA-topoisomerases without interacting with DNA, and of completely impairing the binding of these nuclear proteins to DNA. Moreover, only cotreatment of cells in vitro with F 11782 enhanced the cytotoxic activity of etoposide.. These results emphasize the novel mechanism of action of F 11782 vis-a-vis the other dual inhibitors of topoisomerases I and II and so augur well for its future clinical development.
