Combretastatin A-4 disodiumphosphate (CA4P), a prodrug formulation of the natural product combretastatin A-4 (CA4), is currently in clinical investigation for the treatment of cancer. In vivo, CA4P is rapidly enzymatically converted to CA4, a potent inhibitor of tubulin polymerization (IC(50)=1-2 microM), and rapidly causes bloodflow shutdown in tumor tissues. A variety of alkyl and aryl di- and triesters of CA4P have been synthesized and evaluated as potential CA4 prodrugs and/or stable CA4P analogues.
