Abstract:
This brief review summarizes our work showing that glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are mediators of platinum complex cellular accumulation. Especially, there is an inverse relationship whereby charged polynuclear platinum complexes exemplified by BBR3464 and BBR3571 show enhanced tumor accumulation and antitumor efficacy in presence of a high level of GAGs whereas the inverse relationship occurs for the neutral mononuclear carboplatin. These results add to our understanding of the tumor uptake of platinum anticancer drugs and suggest avenues toward precision medicine for platinums based on patient stratification.
