Tubulin inhibitors. Selected scaffolds and main trends in the design of novel anticancer and antiparasitic agents.

Design of tubulin inhibitors as anticancer drugs dynamically developed over the past 20 years. The modern arsenal of potential tubulin-targeting anticancer agents is represented by small molecules, monoclonal antibodies, and antibody-drug conjugates. Moreover, targeting tubulin has been a successful strategy in the development of antiparasitic drugs.

Click chemistry in the synthesis of antibody-drug conjugates.

Antibody-Drug Conjugates (ADC) are a new class of anticancer therapeutics with immense potential. They have been rapidly advancing in the last two decades. This fast speed of development has become possible due to several new technologies and methods.

4-Thiazolidinone-Bearing Hybrid Molecules in Anticancer Drug Design.

Oncological diseases have currently reached an epidemic scale, especially in industrialized countries. Such a situation has prompted complex studies in medicinal chemistry focused on the research and development of novel effective anticancer drugs. In this review, the data concerning new 4-thiazolidinone-bearing hybrid molecules with potential anticancer activity reported during the period from the years 2017-2022 are summarized.
