Oxazaphosphorine Cytostatics: Structure—Activity Relationships, Selectivity and Metabolism, Regional Detoxification

  • Chapter
Structure-Activity Relationships of Anti-Tumour Agents

Part of the book series: Developments in Pharmacology ((DIPH,volume 3))

Abstract

Progress in the field of chemotherapy of cancer depends decisively on whether we succeed in developing compounds with a higher selectivity of the antitumoral action and thus with a greater therapeutic range, i.e., less dangerous in clinical use. This has been the guiding principle in the work of the Asta research teams for over 30 years.
