The synthesis of new indolopyrrolobenzodiazepine derivatives is described. Six compounds were selected for evaluation of cytotoxicity towards acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells and normal fibroblasts. One compound (29) showed selective AML cell death induction. Its action was only partly overcome by knock-down of p53 or Bcl-2 overexpression, suggesting a strong activation of intrinsic apoptotic pathways.
