Title: [Alkylating derivatives of 2-amino-2-deoxysugars and 1-methylamino-1-deoxypolyols (synthesis and experimental study)]. Author: Shkodinskaia EN, Dorn H, Vasina OS, Kashnikova NM, Kikot' BS. Journal: Vopr Onkol; 1987; 33(11):48-53. PubMed ID: 3686922. Abstract: A number of derivatives of 2-amino-2-deoxysaccharides and 1-methylamino-1-deoxypolyols acylated by cytotoxic phenylalkanic and amino acids were synthesized and experimentally tested for antitumor activity. Some compounds showed a high antitumor activity against plasmacytoma MOPC-406: a 2-fold increase in experimental animals survival and a 80--100% cure rate were observed. Physicochemical properties, particularly, stability in aqueous solution and antitumor activity of one of the most potent compounds--1-methylamino-1-deoxy-1-N[p-di(2-chloroethyl) aminophenylacetyl]-D-glucitol (Agluphen)--are described in detail.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
