Ethynylated Heterodinucleotide Cytostatic Drugs for a better Cancer Therapy
Our invention describes so called duplex drugs by using phosphodiester bounding as a linker between two nucleoside analogues. Their in vivo metabolism delivers a mixture of highly active antimetabolites. First experimental data demonstrate advantages of our duplex drugs compared to classical nucleoside analogues against some types of cancer cells.
