The Cyclin-Dependent Kinase Inhibitor Flavopiridol Potentiates the Effects of Topoisomerase I Poisons by Suppressing Rad51 Expression in a p53-Dependent Manner
1 Apr 2008
Abstract excerpt
The results of a phase I clinical trial of the topoisomerase I (Topo I) poison CPT-11 followed by the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor flavopiridol in patients with advanced solid tumors indicate that patients whose tumors were wild-type, but not mutant, for p53 obtained the most clinical benefit from this combination therapy. We elected to elucidate the mechanistic basis for this effect in isogenic-paired...
