MedKoo Cat#: 206589 | Name: Namitecan

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Namitecan, also known as ST-1968, is a new water-soluble camptothecin analogue which showed high antitumor activity in preclinical models. ST1968 exhibited an impressive activity against several tumors including models of ovarian and colon carcinoma in which a high rate of cures was observed. t ST1968 was able to overcome the most relevant mechanisms associated with the development of topotecan resistance (i.e., slow proliferation and target downregulation) owing to its peculiar pharmacokinetic behaviour.
