Anticancer drug aldehyde conjugate drug with enhanced cytotoxicity: compounds, compositions and methods

摘要

Monomeric and dimeric anti-cancer drug aldehyde conjugate compounds and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. Specifically, monomeric and dimeric aldehyde conjugates of 1-2, dihetero-substituted anti-cancer drugs, including monomeric and dimeric aldehyde conjugates of anthracyclines, are provided. Also provided are pro-drugs which, after administration, release monomeric aldehyde conjugates. Further provided are pharmaceutical and therapeutic compositions containing anti-cancer drug aldehyde conjugates and methods of treating cancer using the aldehyde conjugates.
