Received: 30 March 2012; in revised form: 9 May 2012 / Accepted: 10 May 2012 / Published: 18 May 2012 Abstract: The synthetic investigation of biologically active natural compounds serves two main purposes: (i) the total synthesis of alkaloids and their analogues; (ii) modification of the structures for producing more selective, more effective, or less toxic derivatives. In the chemistry of dimeric Vinca alkaloids enormous efforts have been directed towards synthesizing new derivatives of the antitumor agents vinblastine and vincristine so as to obtain novel compounds with improved therapeutic properties. Keywords: antitumor therapy; vinblastine; vincristine; derivatives 1. Introduction Vinblastine (1) and vincristine (2) are dimeric alkaloids (Figure 1) isolated from the Madagaskar periwinkle plant (Catharantus roseus), exhibit significant cytotoxic activity and are used in the antitumor therapy as antineoplastic agents. In the course of cell proliferation they act as inhibitors during the metaphase of the cell cycle and by binding to the microtubules inhibit the development of the mitotic spindle. In tumor cells these agents inhibit the DNA repair and the RNA synthesis mechanisms, blocking the DNA-dependent RNA polymerase. Molecules 2012, 17 5894 Figure 1.

  • Hodgkin Lymphoma Treatment Regimens
    HODGKIN LYMPHOMA TREATMENT REGIMENS (Part 1 of 5) Clinical Trials: The National Comprehensive Cancer Network recommends cancer patient participation in clinical trials as the gold standard for treatment. Cancer therapy selection, dosing, administration, and the management of related adverse events can be a complex process that should be handled by an experienced health care team. Clinicians must choose and verify treatment options based on the individual patient; drug dose modifications and supportive care interventions should be administered accordingly. The cancer treatment regimens below may include both U.S. Food and Drug Administration-approved and unapproved indications/regimens. These regimens are provided only to supplement the latest treatment strategies. These Guidelines are a work in progress that may be refined as often as new significant data become available. The NCCN Guidelines® are a consensus statement of its authors regarding their views of currently accepted approaches to treatment. Any clinician seeking to apply or consult any NCCN Guidelines® is expected to use independent medical judgment in the context of individual clinical circumstances to determine any patient’s care or treatment. The NCCN makes no warranties of any kind whatsoever regarding their content, use, or application and disclaims any responsibility for their application or use in any way.

  • HODGKIN LYMPHOMA TREATMENT REGIMENS (Part 1 of 2)
    HODGKIN LYMPHOMA TREATMENT REGIMENS (Part 1 of 2) The selection, dosing, and administration of anticancer agents and the management of associated toxicities are complex. Drug dose modifications and schedule and initiation of supportive care interventions are often necessary because of expected toxicities and because of individual patient variability, prior treatment, and comorbidities. Thus, the optimal delivery of anticancer agents requires a healthcare delivery team experienced in the use of such agents and the management of associated toxicities in patients with cancer. The cancer treatment regimens below may include both FDA-approved and unapproved uses/regimens and are provided as references only to the latest treatment strategies. Clinicians must choose and verify treatment options based on the individual patient. NOTE: GREY SHADED BOXES CONTAIN UPDATED REGIMENS.
