Beschreibung

N2'-Deacetyl-N2'-[3-(methylthio)-1-oxopropyl]-maytansine is a cytotoxic drug that belongs to the class of maytansinoids. It is metabolized in vivo to produce cytotoxic metabolites which inhibit protein synthesis by binding to ribosomes, preventing peptide bond formation. The preclinical studies have shown that N2'-deacetyl-N2'-[3-(methylthio)-1-oxopropyl]-maytansine has a better therapeutic index than other maytansinoids, with fewer side effects. In animal models, N2'-deacetyl-N2'-[3-(methylthio)-1-oxopropyl]-maytansine showed efficacy against human tumor cells and was not toxic to normal cells. This agent also showed no impurities when incubated with human liver microsomes and it was well tolerated in clinical trials in humans
