托泊替康盐酸盐水合物以剂量和时间依赖性方式强烈抑制人胶质瘤细胞和胶质瘤干细胞 (GSC) 的生长 [1]。与对照组相比，托泊替康盐酸盐水合物 (0–40 μM) 以剂量依赖性方式显着降低细胞活力 [1]。盐酸托泊替康水合物对 U251、U87、GSCs-U251 和 GSCs-U87 细胞表现出抗增殖活性，IC50 值分别为 2.73±0.25、2.95±0.23、5.46±0.41 和 5.95±0.24 μM [1]。

盐酸托泊替康水合物（0.5、1.0 和 1.5 mg/kg；口服，每日）导致卵巢癌模型中微血管密度大幅下降，而每日口服托泊替康 1.5 mg/kg 治疗的患者大鼠的食物摄入量较低，抗肿瘤效果较差[2]。

拓扑替康[（S）-9-二甲氨基甲基-10-羟基喜树碱盐酸盐；SK&F 104864-A，NSC 609699]是喜树碱的水溶性半合成类似物，是一种强效的拓扑异构酶I抑制剂。在这里，我们表明拓扑替康稳定了抗辐射的人类B系急性淋巴细胞白血病（ALL）细胞中的拓扑异构酶I/DNA可切割复合物，尽管bcl-2蛋白表达水平很高，但仍会导致快速凋亡细胞死亡，并以剂量依赖的方式抑制ALL细胞的体外克隆生长。此外，拓扑替康在三种不同的人类预后不良ALL的严重联合免疫缺陷（SCID）小鼠模型中引发了强效的抗白血病活性，并显著提高了SCID小鼠在全身药物暴露水平下用致命剂量的人类白血病细胞攻击的无事件生存率，这在白血病儿童中很容易实现[Blood. 1995 May 15;85(10):2817-28]。

胶质瘤是最恶性的脑肿瘤，含有一小部分胶质瘤干细胞（GSCs），与治疗耐药性和肿瘤复发有关。拓扑异构酶I抑制剂紫草素和拓扑替康在抗癌治疗中发挥着至关重要的作用。成功分离和鉴定胶质瘤细胞中的GSCs后，在不同时间点用不同浓度的紫草素或拓扑替康给药U251、U87、GSCs-U251和GSCs-U87细胞，以寻求最佳给药浓度和时间点。采用细胞计数试剂盒-8和流式细胞仪检测细胞活力、细胞周期和凋亡，观察对胶质瘤细胞和GSCs的抑制作用。我们证明，紫草素和拓扑替康不仅明显抑制人脑胶质瘤细胞的增殖，而且以剂量和时间依赖的方式抑制GSCs的增殖。根据24小时的IC50值，选择2μmol/L的紫草素和3μmol/L的拓扑替康作为最佳给药浓度。此外，紫草素和拓扑替康诱导细胞周期阻滞在G0/G1期和S期，并促进细胞凋亡。Bcl-2表达的下调与胱天蛋白酶9/3依赖途径的激活有关。因此，上述结果表明，拓扑异构酶I抑制剂紫草素和拓扑替康抑制了GSCs和胶质瘤细胞的生长并诱导了它们的凋亡，这表明它们可能是靶向胶质瘤的潜在抗癌药物，从而提供了一种新的治疗策略[1]。

In vivo antitumor efficacies of the LDM topotecan and pazopanib as single agents and in combination were tested on 4 subcutaneous xenograft models and on 2 neuroblastoma metastatic models. Circulating angiogenic factors such as circulating endothelial cells (CEC), circulating endothelial pro genitor cells (CEP), and microvessel densities were used as surrogate biomarker markers of antiangiogenic activity.[2]

Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
Renal clearance is an important determinant of topotecan elimination. In a mass balance/excretion study in 4 patients with solid tumors, the overall recovery of total topotecan and its N-desmethyl metabolite in urine and feces over 9 days averaged 73.4 ± 2.3% of the administered IV dose. Fecal elimination of total topotecan accounted for 9 ± 3.6% while fecal elimination of N-desmethyl topotecan was 1.7 ± 0.6%.
The pharmacokinetics of topotecan have been extensively studied in patients with normal renal function and there is one study of patients with mild to moderate renal insufficiency. However, the effect of hemodialysis on topotecan disposition has not been reported. The objective of this study was to characterize the disposition of topotecan in a patient with severe renal insufficiency receiving hemodialysis. Topotecan lactone disposition was characterized in a patient on and off hemodialysis. The topotecan lactone clearance determined after administration of topotecan alone and with hemodialysis was 5.3 L/hr per sq m vs 20.1 L/hr per sq m respectively. At 30 min after the completion of hemodialysis, the topotecan plasma concentration obtained was greater than that measured at the end of hemodialysis (i.e. 8.0 ng/mL vs 4.9 ng/mL), suggesting a rebound effect. The topotecan terminal half-life off dialysis was 13.6 hr, compared with an apparent half-life determined during hemodialysis of 3.0 hr. These results demonstrate that topotecan plasma clearance while on hemodialysis increased approximately fourfold. Hemodialysis may be an effective systemic clearance process for topotecan and should be considered in selected clinical situations (e.g. inadvertent overdose, severe renal dysfunction).
In lactating rats receiving IV topotecan at a dosage of 4.72 mg/sq m, high concentrations of the drug (i.e., up to 48 times higher than plasma concentrations) were distributed into milk. It is not known whether topotecan is distributed into human milk.
Following oral administration, about 57% of topotecan (administered daily for 5 days) is excreted in urine as unchanged drug (20%) and as the N-desmethyl metabolite (2%).47 Approximately 33% of the oral dose of topotecan was eliminated in feces as total topotecan and approximately 2% as N-desmethyl topotecan. Following IV administration, about 74% of a topotecan dose is excreted, mostly unchanged in urine (51%) and feces (18%) within 9 days; excretion of N-desmethyl topotecan in urine is approximately 3% and in feces is approximately 2%. O-Glucuronide metabolites of topotecan and N-desmethyl topotecan also have been detected in urine following oral and IV (less than 2% of the administered IV dose) administration of the drug.
No substantial gender-related differences in pharmacokinetics were reported in patients receiving oral topotecan. The average plasma clearance of IV topotecan was 24% higher in males than in females, mainly because of difference in body size.

Metabolism / Metabolites
Topotecan undergoes a reversible pH dependent hydrolysis of its lactone moiety; it is the lactone form that is pharmacologically active.
Topotecan undergoes a reversible pH-dependent hydrolysis of its lactone moiety; it is the lactone form that is pharmacologically active. At pH =4, the lactone is exclusively present, whereas the ring-opened hydroxy-acid form predominates at physiologic pH. In vitro studies in human liver microsomes indicate topotecan is metabolized to an N-demethylated metabolite. The mean metabolite:parent AUC ratio was about 3% for total topotecan and topotecan lactone following IV administration.

Effects During Pregnancy and Lactation
◉ Summary of Use during Lactation
Most sources consider breastfeeding to be contraindicated during maternal high-dose antineoplastic drug therapy. The manufacturer recommends that women not breastfeed during treatment with topotecan and for 1 week after the last dose. Chemotherapy may adversely affect the normal microbiome and chemical makeup of breastmilk. Women who receive chemotherapy during pregnancy are more likely to have difficulty nursing their infant.

Gliomas, the most malignant form of brain tumors, contain a small subpopulation of glioma stem cells (GSCs) that are implicated in therapeutic resistance and tumor recurrence. Topoisomerase I inhibitors, shikonin and topotecan, play a crucial role in anti-cancer therapies. After isolated and identified the GSCs from glioma cells successfully, U251, U87, GSCs-U251 and GSCs-U87 cells were administrated with various concentrations of shikonin or topotecan at different time points to seek for the optimal administration concentration and time point. The cell viability, cell cycle and apoptosis were detected using cell counting kit-8 and flow cytometer to observe the inhibitory effects on glioma cells and GSCs. We demonstrated that shikonin and topotecan obviously inhibited proliferation of not only human glioma cells but also GSCs in a dose- and time-dependent manner. According to the IC50 values at 24 h, 2 μmol/L of shikonin and 3 μmol/L of topotecan were selected as the optimal administration concentration. In addition, shikonin and topotecan induced cell cycle arrest in G0/G1 and S phases and promoted apoptosis. The down-regulation of Bcl-2 expression with the activation of caspase 9/3-dependent pathway was involved in the apoptosis process. Therefore, the above results showed that topoisomerase I inhibitors, shikonin and topotecan, inhibited growth and induced apoptosis of GSCs as well as glioma cells, which suggested that they might be the potential anticancer agents targeting gliomas to provide a novel therapeutic strategy.[1]

Purpose: Low dose metronomic (LDM) chemotherapy, combined with VEGF signaling pathway inhibitors, is a highly effective strategy to coordinately inhibit angiogenesis and tumor growth in many adult preclinical cancer models. We have tested the efficacies of daily oral LDM topotecan alone and in combination with pazopanib, a VEGF receptor inhibitor, in three pediatric extracranial solid tumor mouse models. Experimental design: In vitro dose-response study of topotecan and pazopanib was conducted on several neuroblastoma, osteosarcoma, and rhabdomyosarcoma cell lines. In vivo antitumor efficacies of the LDM topotecan and pazopanib as single agents and in combination were tested on 4 subcutaneous xenograft models and on 2 neuroblastoma metastatic models. Circulating angiogenic factors such as circulating endothelial cells (CEC), circulating endothelial pro genitor cells (CEP), and microvessel densities were used as surrogate biomarker markers of antiangiogenic activity. Results: In vitro, topotecan caused a dose-dependent decrease in viabilities of all cell lines, while pazopanib did not. In vivo, combination of topotecan + pazopanib (TP + PZ) showed significant antitumor activity and significant enhancement in survival compared with the respective single agents in all models. Reductions in viable CEP and/or CEC levels and tumor microvessel density were correlated with tumor response and therefore confirmed the antiangiogenic activity of the regimens. Pharmacokinetic studies of both drugs did not reveal any drug-drug interaction. Conclusion: Metronomic administration of TP + PZ showed a statistically significant antitumor activity compared with respective single agents in pediatric tumor mouse models and represent a valid option as a maintenance therapy in aggressive pediatric solid tumors.[2]
