Identification
- Summary
Tallimustine is an alkylating agent previously investigated for it's antitumor activity but was stopped due to severe myelotoxicity.
- Generic Name
- Tallimustine
- DrugBank Accession Number
- DB15466
- Background
Tallimustine, a benzoyl mustard derivative of distamycin A, is an alkylating agent that binds to the minor groove of DNA.1,2 It's association with severe myelotoxicity lead to the end of its development in favour of α-halogenoacrylamide derivatives such as brostallicin, which have a favourable cytotoxicity/myelotoxicity ratio.2,3 Newer generations of DNA minor groove binding agents can more specifically recognize base pair sequences.5

- Mechanism of action
Tallimustine binds to the minor groove of DNA while avoiding targets like glutathione.2 Currently, the mechanism of DNA minor groove binding agents is poorly understood.4 Though, they may act by directly inhibiting the interaction of protein and DNA.4
