A Lanthanide catalyzed double activation technique was used to combine known anti-viral and anti-tumor moieties. The resulting series of compounds was designed to inhibit telomerase activity within cancer tumor cells by stabilizing the quadruplex (G-4) conformation of DNA. NSC-D 694332 is the first of this series to show single digit micromolar inhibition of more than six tumor cell lines. Molecular modeling ...
