HIDE SMILES / InChI
Ametantrone (AM) is a synthetic 9,10-anthracenedione bearing two (hydroxyethylamino)ethylamino residues at positions 1 and 4; along with other anthraquinones and anthracyclines, it shares a polycyclic intercalating moiety and charged side chains that stabilize DNA binding. Ametantrone is anticancer drug candidate targeting DNA. Ametantrone is a topoisomerase II inhibitor of the anthrapyrazole family. Ametantrone induces interstrand DNA cross-links in HeLa S3 cells. These cross-links were observed only in cellular system suggesting that metabolism of the drugs is a necessary step leading to DNA cross-linking. Ametantrone appeared to be very well tolerated and easy to handle. A dose-schedule of 135 mg/m2 q 2–3 weeks was recommended for phase II studies in solid tumors.

Sample Use Guides

Sixteen patients received 33 courses of drug as a single iv dose given every 3 weeks. Escalations proceeded from 120 to 180 mg/m2. A dose of 140-160 mg/m2 is recommended as the starting dose for phase II trials in patients who have received prior chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
Route of Administration: Intravenous
In Vitro Use Guide
84 of 228 tumors plated for the ametantrone study were evaluable for drug-sensitivity assays. The overall in vitro response rates (defined as a less than or equal to 50% survival of tumor colony-forming units) for ametantrone were 13%, 21%, and 26% at 0.1, 1, and 10 ug/ml, respectively.
