How Karenitecin works
BNP1350, 7-[(2-trimethylsilyl)ethyl]-20(S)-camptothecin, is a novel semi-synthetic, highly lipophilic, silicon-containing camptothecin and an inhibitor of topoisomerase I. It has been supercomputer engineered for superior oral bioavailability, superior lactone stability, broad anti-tumor activity, increased potency and insensitivity to Pgp/MRP/LRP drug resistance.
