Zusammenfassung:DX-8951f or exatecan mesylate ((1 S,9 S)-1-amino-9-ethyl-5-fluoro-2,3-dihydro-9-hydroxy-4-methyl-1 H,12 H-benzo[ de]pyrano[3′,4′:6,7]indolizino[1,2- b]quinoline-10-13(9 H,15 H)-dione methanesulfonate dihydrate), is a new water-soluble derivative of camptothecin. We determined the activity of DX-8951f in experimental human colon cancer and ovarian cancer, being tumor types sensitive to camptothecins. With the use of the MTT assay, DX-8951f was more potent than SN-38 in four out of five human colon cancer cell lines and three out of four human ovarian cancer cell lines ( P
