ABSTRACT:
Novel analogs of compounds from the marine sponge Discodermia dissoluta have been prepared. These compounds have been shown to have activity against mammalian cancer cells, and can be used in treating human patients which host cancer cells, including leukemia, melanoma, breast, colon, CNS, renal, ovarian, prostate, and lung tumors.
