Abstract

Compounds belonging to three novel groups of oncological drugs (metal polyacrylates, ferrocene derivatives, and polysuccinimide) showed antitumor activity. The most efficient compounds, viz., gold polyacrylate (auracryl), 2-[(1-ferrocenylethyl)sulfanyl]pyrimidine (LS-17), and polysuccinimide, inhibit the growth of murine solid tumors by 70–95% and are recommended for further thorough preclinical studies of their antitumor properties and mechanisms of action.
