Four-week repeated toxicity of SJ-8029, a novel anticancer drug, was investigated in rats. Male (body weight 188 $\pm$ 9 g) and female (body weight 155 $\pm$ 6 g) Sprague-Dawley rats were intravenously administered with SJ-8029 at dose levels of 0.75, 1.5 or 3.0 mg/kg, respectively, everyday for 28 days.(omitted)

This study examined the pharmacokinetic disposition of SJ-8029. a novel anticancer agent possessing microtubule and topoisomerase inhibiting activities. in mice. rats. rabbits and dogs after i.v. administration. The serum concentration-time curves of SJ-8029 were best described by tri-exponential equations in all these animal species. The mean CI. $V_{ss}$ and $t_{1/2}$ were 0.3 L/h. 0.1 Land 63.2 min in mice. 1.5 L/h. 1.6 Land 247.7 min in rats. 13.8 L/h. 39.6 Land 245.9 min in rabbits. and 29.2 L/h. 44.6 Land 117.4 min in dogs. respectively.

A new piperazine derivative, 8J-8029, is a synthetic anti-cancer agent which exhibits both microtubule and topoisomerase II inhibiting activities. In this study, we investigated the ability of 8J-8029 for anti-angiogenesis and apoptosis. 8J-8029 decreased the bFGF-induced angiogenesis in the CAM and the mouse Matrigel implants, in vivo. 8J-8029 inhibited the proliferation, migration, invasion, tube fonnation, and expression of MMP-2 in BAECs. In addition, 8J-8029 reduced the cell viability in HepG2 cells, caused the production of fragmented DNA and the morphological changes corresponding to apoptosis. 8J-8029 also elicited the release of cytochrome c and the activation of caspase-3. Taken together, these results suggest 8J-8029 may be a candidate for anti-cancer agent with the ability to inhibit the angiogenesis of endothelial cells and to induce the apoptosis of tumor cells.
