  • Publication number: 20110160147
    Abstract: The present invention relates to dual-targeting cytotoxic compounds of formula (I) and to their preparation. The described compounds are endowed with tumour specific action, incorporating three functional units: a tumour recognition moiety and a tumour selective enzymatic substrate sequence connected together by means of a spacer. These conjugates are designed to guarantee serum stability and, at the same time, the desired action inside the tumour cells as a result of enzymatic cleavability. [(L-D)nE]m-F-D-PI-SI-CT Formula (I).
