Topoisomerase-I Inhibitor Definition

Compounds that inhibit the action of topoisomerase I (see Topoisomerase Inhibitors). The alkaloid camptothecin is the most commonly used inhibitor of topoisomerase I. Water-soluble derivatives of camptothecin, such as CPT-11 and topotecan, have been examined for antineoplastic activity in colorectal cancer, non--small-cell lung cancer, lymphoma, ovarian cancer, head and neck cancer, pancreatic cancer, and breast cancer
