Novel Small Molecule Inhibitors of Tyrosyl-DNA Phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) for Treatment of Solid Tumors

Abstract: Topoisomerase 1 (TOP1) is an essential enzyme that plays a critical role in DNA transcription and replication. TOP1 inhibitors are a known class of anti-cancer agents that work to interrupt DNA replication in cancer cells, causing cell death. Since the discovery of the TOP1 inhibitor camptothecin (CPT) from plant extracts more than 60 years...

Small Molecule Inhibitors of Drug Resistant Forms of HIV-1 Integrase

Abstract: Integrase strand transfer inhibitors (“INSTIs”) are currently in use as a component of prophylactic antiretroviral therapy for preventing HIV-1 infection from progressing to AIDS. Three INSTIs are approved by the FDA for inclusion in antiretroviral regiments: raltegravir (RAL), elvitegravir (EVG) and dolutegravir (DTG). Clinicians have already...
