beta-lapachone and Prostatic Neoplasms

beta-lapachone has been researched along with Prostatic Neoplasms in 13 studies

beta-lapachone: antineoplastic inhibitor of reverse transcriptase, DNA topoisomerase, and DNA polymerase
beta-lapachone : A benzochromenone that is 3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo[h]chromene-5,6-dione substituted by geminal methyl groups at position 2. Isolated from Tabebuia avellanedae, it exhibits antineoplastic and anti-inflammatory activities.

Prostatic Neoplasms: Tumors or cancer of the PROSTATE.
