Molecular Orbital calculations using the SC-MEH method have been carried out for the interaction of Adenine, Guanine and Cytosine as DNA base and diaminecytosineplatinum(DCP) in various conformations. The results showed that the order of DCP binding to the DNA bases was guanine > adenine > cytosine and the stabilization energy of cis-isomer was larger than that of trans-isomer in the adenine-DCP complexes system. Furthermore, platinum(II) binding to DNA bases markedly gives rise to change of atomic charge in DNA bases ring, which can explain anti-tumor activity of platinum complex.

We have synthesized a novel platinum(II) coordination complex containing cis-1,2-diaminocyclohexane (DACH) as a carrier ligand and 1,3-dichloropropane (DCP) as a leaving group. A new series of [Pt(cis- DACH)(DCP)](PC) was evaluated for its cytotoxic activity on MKN-45 human gastric adenocarcinoma cells and normal primary cultured kidney cells. The new platinum complex has demonstrated high efficacy in the cytotoxicity against MKN-45/P, MKN-45/ADM and MKN-45/CDDP cell-lines. The cytotoxicity of PC against rabbit proximal renal tubular cells, human renal cortical cells and human renal cortical tissues, determined by MTT assay, the $[^3H]-thymidine$ uptake and glucose consumption tests, was found to be quite less than those of cisplatin. Based on these results, this novel platinum(II) coordination complex appears to be better for improving antitumor activities with low nephrotoxicity and is a valuable lead in the development of new, clinically available anticancer chemotherapeutic agents.

As part of a research program to develope 3rd generation anti tumor platinum complexes, a series of platinum complexes which have 4, 5-bis-(aminomethyl)- 1, 3-dioxolane derivatives as bidenate amine ligands, represented by the general structual formula was prepared. The R$_1$ and/or R$_2$ substituents in this series of platinum complexes can be hydrogen. alkyl, of jointly formed cyclohexane. Two Xs can be a bidenate leaving ligand such as 1, 1-cyclobutanedicarboxylate, malonate, dimethylmalonate, ethylmalonate, glycolate, L-lactate, or N-methyliminodiacetate. From based on the pharmacological and toxicological studies, we have chosen SKI 2053R, cis-malonato[(4R, 5R)-4, 5-bis(aminomethyl)-2-isopropyl-1, 3-dioxolane] platinum(II) complex (NSC D644591) as a candidate for clinical evaluation. The antitumor activity of a new anti tumor platinum complex, cis-malonato [(4R, 5R)-4, 5-bis(aminomethyl)-2-isopropyl-1, 3-dioxolane] platinum(II) (SKI 2053R, NSC D644591), was compared with those of cisplatin and carboplatin using murine tumors. We evaluated three platinum complexes against L1210/CPR, a subline of L1210 leukemia resistant to cisplatin for their abilities to overcome tumor resistance to cisplatin. The in vitro cytotoxicity of SKI 2053R to L1210 cell line was 2.5-fold less potent thann that of cisplatin, and was 10-fold more cytotoxic than that of carboplatin. SKI 2053R retained similar cytotoxic effect and anti tumor activity to L1210/CPR cell line, like the cytotoxicity of SKI 2053R to L1210 cell line, while either cisplatin or carboplatin had not property to overcome the acquired cisplatin-resistance. SKI 2053R exhibited greater or comparable antitumor activity than cisplatin or carboplatin in murine tumor models.

We have synthesized a novel platinum(II) coordination complex containing cis-1,2-diaminocyclohexane (DACH) as a carrier ligand and 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE) as a leaving group. In addition, nitrate was added to improve the water-solubility. A new series of [Pt(cis-DACH)(DCE)] $2NO_3(PC)$ was evaluated for its cytotoxic activity on T-24 and J-82 human bladder carcinoma cells and normal primary cultured kidney cells. PC has demonstrated high levels of cytotoxicity against T-24 and J-82 cells. The cytotoxicity of PC against rabbit proximal renal tubular cells, human renal cortical cells and human renal cortical tissues, determined using the MTT assaying technique, the $[^3H]-thymidine$ uptake and glucose consumption tests, was found to be quite less than those of cisplatin. Based on these results, this novel platinum(II) coordination complex appears to be better for improving antitumor activities with low nephrotoxicity and is a valuable lead in the development of new clinically available anticancer chemotherapeutic agents.

KHPC-002 $[(trans-l-diaminocyclohexane-bis-l,2(diphenylphosphinoethane)platinum)\;{\cdot}2NO_3]$ and $KHPC-006[(cis-diaminocyclohexane-bis-1,2(diphenylphosphinoethane)platinum)\;{\cdot}2NO_3]$ were synthesized as candidates for third platinum antitumor agent. Before their pharmacokinetic study, we optimized the analytical condition with HPLC and identified the major metabolites in the rat plasma. HPLC analysis by $C_{18}$ reverse-phase column showed that standard peak of both compounds appeared rapidly at around 1 minutes, whereas metabolites of KHPC-002 and KHPC-006 which were extracted from plasma after single I.V. administration in rats or incubation for 24 hr at $37^{\circ}C$ showed retention time of $10{\sim}11$ minutes. These metabolites were identified as the major compound by Matrix Associated Laser Deposition/Ionization (MALDI), which only lose the 2 molecules of $NO_3$. Based on these results, we suggest that the major metabolites of KHPC-002 and KHPC-006 were [trans-l-diamino-cyclohexane-bis-l,2(diphenylphosphinoethane)platinum] and [cis-diaminocyclohexane-bis-l.2(diphenylphosphinoethane)platinum], respectively.

New diamineplatinum(Ⅱ) complexes of cyclohexylidenemalonate (chm) ligand, A2Pt(OOC)2C=C(CH2)4CH2 (1, A2=ethylenediamine (en); 2, A2=propylenediamine (pn); 3, A=NH3; 4, A=isopropylamine (ipa)) have been prepared. Their oxidation with H2O2 has led to the corresponding dihydroxoplatinum(Ⅳ) complexes: cis, cis, trans-A2Pt((OOC)2C=C(CH2)4CH2)(OH)2 (5, A2=en; 6, A2=pn; 7, A=NH3; 8, A=ipa). The title complexes have been characterized by means of various spectroscopies and X-ray crystallography. 5 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/a (Z=4) with a=12.098(7) Å, b=9.552(2) Å, c=16.258(4) Å, β=98.03(5)° and V=1860(1) Å3. The structure was refined to R=0.074. The local geometry around platinum atom is approximately octahedral with each hydroxide group in trans position. These platinum complexes are stable in aqueous solution. Pt(Ⅳ) complexes are readily reduced to the corresponding Pt(Ⅱ) complexes by ascorbic acid.

We have synthesized novel platinum (II) coordination complex containing cis-1,2-diaminocyclohexane (DACH) as a carrier ligand and 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane (DPPE) as leaving group. Furthermore, nitrate was added to improve the water-solubility. A new series of [Pt(cis-DACH)(DPPE)] $2NO_3(PC)$ was evaluated its antitumor activity on various MKN-45 human gastric adenocarcinoma cell-lines and normal primary cultured kidney cells. The new platinum complex demonstrated high efficacy in the cytotoxicity on MKN-45 cell-lines as well as adriamycin-resistant (MKN-45/ADR) and cisplatin-resistant (MKN-45/CDDP) cells. The cytotoxicities of PC were found quite less than those of cisplatin in rabbit proximal renal tubular cells, human renal cortical cells and human renal cortical tissues using MTT assay, $[^3H]-thymidine$ uptake and glucose consumption tests. Based on these results, this novel platinum (II) coordination complex, was considered as better a valuable lead for improving antitumor activities with low nephrotoxicities in the development of a new clinically available anticancer chemotherapeutic agents.

Platinum coordination complexes are currently one of the most compounds used in the treatment of solid tumors. However, its use is limited by severe side effects such as nephrotoxicity. Our platinum-based drug discovery program is aimed at developing drugs capable of diminishing toxicity and broadening the clinical spectrum of activity of cisplatin. We synthesized new Pt(II) complex analogue containing 1,2-diaminocyclohexane (dach) as carrier ligand and 1,3-bis(diphenyl phosphino)propane (DPPP) as a leaving group. Furthermore, nitrate was added to improve the solubility. A new series of PC-1 [Pt(cis-dach) (DPPP)]. $2NO_3_2$ was synthesized and characterized by their elemental analysis and by various spectroscopic techniques [infrared (IR), $^{13}carbon$ nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)]. PC-1 was demonstrated acceptable antitumor activity aganist SKOV -3, OVCAR-3 human ovarian adenocarcinomacells and significant activity as compared with that of cisplatin. The toxicity of PC-1 was found quite less than that of cisplatin using MTT, $[^3H]thymidine$ uptake and glucose consumption tests in rabbit proximal tubule cells, human kidney cortical cells and human renal cortical tissues. Based on these results, this novel platinum compound represent a valuable lead in the development of a new anticancer chemotherapeutic agent capable of improving antitumor activity and low toxicity.
