4.1 Drug Indication

Investigated for the treatment of cancer.


5 Pharmacology and Biochemistry
5.1 Pharmacology

Camptothecin demonstrated strong anticancer activity in preliminary clinical trials but also low solubility and adverse drug reaction. Camptothecin is believed to be a potent topoisomerase inhibitor that interferes with the essential function of topoisomerase in DNA replication.


5.2 MeSH Pharmacological Classification

Topoisomerase I Inhibitors

Compounds that inhibit the activity of DNA TOPOISOMERASE I. (See all compounds classified as Topoisomerase I Inhibitors.)


Antineoplastic Agents, Phytogenic

Agents obtained from higher plants that have demonstrable cytostatic or antineoplastic activity. (See all compounds classified as Antineoplastic Agents, Phytogenic.)


5.3 Mechanism of Action

Camptothecin binds to the topoisomerase I and DNA complex resulting in a ternary complex, stabilizing it and preventing DNA re-ligation and therefore causes DNA damage which results in apoptosis.
