`
`Introduction
`
`Since 1956 the Cancer Chemotherapy National Service Center (CCNSC), now incor(cid:173)
`porated into the Developmental Therapeutics Program (DTP), has had a compre(cid:173)
`hensive drug development program which includes the screening of compounds obtained
`from natural products. The fermentation program. during the last four years has isolated
`and evaluated an average of 7500 organisms per year for their ability to produce new
`antineoplastic agents, but in 1979 approximately 15,000 organisms were screened.
`Since the inception of the program, approximately 180,000 culture filtrates have been
`tested in vivo against murinc tumors and 8.5 % of these have been found active ( I 0).
`A marked improvement in in vivo activity in recent years has been due to using in vitro
`pre-screen tests (only those broths active in the in vitro screen arc then tested in vivo)
`and isolating unusual organisms rather than just Streptomyces. Prior to 1975, no in
`vitro pre-screens were used by the CCNSC and primarily the isolation and fermentation
`of Streptomyces dominated the program. While Strcptomyccs 'Were the most prolific
`organisms for the production of novel antimicrobial antibiotics, this did not necessarily
`mean they would be the best producers of antineoplastic agents.
`Some of the in vitro prescrecns used in the NCI program and some contemplated tests
`arc shown in Table 1.
`There have been 1743 crystalline microbial metabolites screened in the program,
`with more than 1000 coming into the program, since 1975 (Table 2).Japancse companies,
`research institutes, and academia have supplied NCI with approximately 400 of these
`compounds during this time.
`Pure compounds which cntc1·ccl the NCI Natural Products Program for evaluation
`in the last yea,• include 233 antibiotics, 180 plant products and 20 animal products
`(Table 3)'. A total of 269 compounds have been assigned for tumor panel testing since
`1977 (Table 4) (8). Also, 432 compounds have .been selected for special testing based
`on some non-cancer biological activity or data regarding concentration of the agent in

`a specific organ, e.g. a compound concentrating in the kidney would be tested against
`renal carcinoma in the mouse (Table 5).
`The plant program evaluates approximately 1500-5000 plant extracts/year, which is
`equivalent to 500-900 plants/year. Since the program's initiation in 1957, about 35,000
`plant species and 108,830 extracts have been screened against murine tumors in vivo
`or for cell cytotoxicity against the KB (human nasopharynx) cell line. Approximately
`7192 crystalline plant materials have been tested in the program. At present, 80 plant
`compounds arc in special testing and 89 are in the tumor panel (Table 4).
`The smallest program has been the animal program and as yet no animal product
`has been evaluated by NCI in clinical trials. NCI has tested approximately 555 crystal(cid:173)
`line animal products and at present has 3 animal compounds in the tumor panel and
`43 animal-derived materials in special testing (Tables 4, 5).
`Many of the pure compounds screened have been isolated from the above-mentioned
`areas through NCI's extramural research program. NCI also has obtained many com(cid:173)
`pounds through its worldwide surveillance program that includes contacting industrial
`concerns, research institutes, universities, and individual scientists to acquire compounds
`of potential interest due to their novel structures or biological activities.
`Some of the more interesting drugs from this program will be reviewed. Most of the
`drugs discussed in the paper arc in preliminary stages of evaluation although several
`agents arc in early clinical trials.
`
`Methodology
`
`Compounds arc obtained by Lhc Natural Products Branch through contracts, grants,
`and through an extensive worldwide surveillance program.
`Pure compounds are tested initially against the P388 leukemia (in vivo pre-screen) at
`NCI unless there is biochemical data or anti tumor data which indicates that other testing
`would be more desirable. Analogs of known active compounds arc tested in direct
`comparison with the parent compound. Compounds which show preliminary activity
`arc retested for confirmation. Confirmed active compounds are reviewed for suitability
`for further testing in the NCI tumor panel (Table 6). Generally all compounds which
`show confirmed activity and arc structurally novel arc tested in the panel as are analogs
`·which show superior activity to their parent compounds.

`test the hrot hs against various pre-screens (Tables I and 7). In addilion, comclabolism
`and biotrnnsfonnation techniques arc used on various substrates of interest to NCf lo sec
`if, by subtle microbial chemical modification, one can increase activity, lower toxicity,
`increase bioavailability, or lcmicr carcinogenicity (39). This work has just been iniliatcd
`and has started to yield sornc metabolites tliat arc now being isolated and appear to be
`novel.
`The techniques used to isolate organisms arc pollen baiting, enrichment, percolation,
`and sprinkle plate. In addition, substrates such as unusual sugars, purines, pyrirni<lincs,
`terpencs, arnino acids and hydrocarbons have been used ns sole sources of carbon for
`these organisms. 'rhc fonncntntion broths arc then evaluated againl'l various pr;:-scrcens.
`Active. broths arc rcfermcntcd and, if active again in the prc-sc,·ecn, arc tested in vivo
`against the P:1HB leukemia. An expansion of new pn:-scrcens is being contemplated for
`use in the entire natural products program with the hope of increasing productivity.
`If in vivo· activity is demonstrated in a broth and if presumptive chromatography
`indicates the presence of a novel compound, the active broth is then assigned to a
`chemist. The compound is isolated, idcntiiied, and is then tested in at lcasl four ad(cid:173)
`ditional murinc tumors if sufficient 1natcrial is available (7).
`Results obtained in 1979 indicate that the present approach 10 obtaining new cultures
`that produce novel antineoplastic agents is bcari11g fruit (Tables B, 9, 10). The final
`benefit of using .these various methods to obtain new drugs will be determined by how
`many of these materials have clinical cllicacy. [n order to obtain more novel fermen(cid:173)
`tation-derived compounds, the NCI has sponsored contracts at the 9 contractors listed
`i11 'fable l l.
`The l ·H fermentations currently undergoing chemical isolation studies indicate that
`the NCI program is obtaining more presumptive leads than ever. Prior to l 975 the
`program averaged about 18-22 fermentations undergoing isolation studies in any one
`year.

`The present contractors are investigating many fermentation beers that show good
`in viva activity against P388. These leads primarily come from the pre-screens and new
`isolation carbon sources (Table 7) and hopefully will yield many new antineoplastic
`agents.
`One additional meth~d of obtaining new fermentation leads which is being studied
`is mutational biosynthesis. Two types of mutants are used, auxotrophic and idiotrophic.
`Evahiation of this area of research is just bi'.!ginning but many of the contractors feel it
`could be; profitable and should yield new antincoplastic agents.

`
`In addition 10 compounds obtained from NCI 's research program in 1979, approxi-
`111atcly 345 materials derived from natural products were added through a worldwide
`surveillance program. Several clinical and preclinical drugs derived by fermentation
`have been evaluated by NCJ through this surveillance program. Bleomycin, adriamycin,
`daunomycin an<l aclacinomycin arc examples of clinically active drugs that were brought
`into the program. At present, aphidicolin, cchinomycin, pepleomycin, macrornomycin,
`showdomyciu, bcstatin and others arc in various stages of preclinical testing (8).
`
`Plant and animal progra1ns
`
`The plant program ·which has been in existence since 1957 has undergone several
`important modifications in the last 2-3 years. vVc arc not only collecting plants ,vorld(cid:173)
`widc hut, through botanists around the world, obtain lists of all plants in a country.
`Our computer programs then select the plams ,vc have never had in our program or
`those ,vhich have only been tested a Jew times. In addition to our usual plant fraction(cid:173)
`ation program we also have a contract for preparation of aqueous extracts of fresh
`plants in order to determine whether dried plants and our organic solvent extraction
`system miss any potential antincoplastic agents (8). At the present time 64 plar..t
`products are being evaluated in the tumor panel and 4· in special testing. Since the
`inception of the program, 2192 crystalline plant-derived compounds have been evalu(cid:173)
`ated. \Vhilc the animal program is much smaller than the above-mentioned program,
`555 crystalline materials have been tested. The first animal products have now reached
`tumor panel testing with 3 being in the panel and 43 in special testing. Table 12
`indicates NCI's present contracts in the plant. and animal area.

`
`Results
`
`The compounds discussed in this section arc potentially of interest to. NCI because of
`animal in vivo activity or unique structure and arc still being evaluated but have not
`reached the stage of being clinically useful.
`C:otylcnin A--NSC 319518 (Figure I) is a fermentation product (38). This glycosidc
`is an unusual compound which is undergoing special testing against 3 solid tumors and
`P388 leukemia. So far no activity has been observed.
`Rubransarol A-NSC 310385 (Figure 2) is a fermentation-derived quinone which
`was discovered by the Upjohn Company (16). Because of its structure and biological
`activity it was considered worthy of special testing. So far this compound has been
`inactive against the P388 leukemia and B 16 melanoma.
`CC-1065-NSC 298223 (Figure 3, Table 13) is a fermentation product which was
`discovered by the U pjohn Company ( 13). This benzodipyrrole recently passed Decision
`Network 2A and has been selected for preclinical development. This drug had good
`activity against P388 leukemia and B 16 melanoma and was slightly active against all
`the other murine tumors in the NCI panel except Lewis lung (LL). Formulation
`studies and bulk production are currently being pursued by the Ur.john Company.
`Tetracenomycin C--NSC 309451 (Figure 4) is a fermentation-derived naphthocenc
`(45) which was obtained from our worldwide surveillance program. This antibiotic is
`scheduled to be tested in the entire tumor panel based on its confirmed P388 activity.
`Acivicin-NSC: 163501 (Figure 5, Table 14) is an isoxazole that was isolated from a
`fermentation by the Upjohn Company and was formerly designated as AT-125 (12, 14,
`26). Acivicin acts as an antimetabolitc to glutarnine, histidine and asparagine (5, 15, 17).
`This compound has now entered Phase I clinical trials in the United States. The com(cid:173)
`pound has shown good activity against the murine lcuk«:rnias (P388-T/C > 200,
`LE-TiC 180) (27) and against the CD mammary tumor and the colon 26 tumor.
`Acivicin was also active against several P388 leukemia resist.int lines and showed good
`activity in the mammary xenografts (MX-1 and MB) (18).
`Herbimycin-NSC 305978 (Figure 6, Table 15) is a quinone isolated al Kitasato
`University from a fermentation (35, 36). This compound was in the special testing
`program and has shown Bl6 melanocarcinoma activity. Based on that activity it is
`now being tested in the NCI tumor panel.
`Cranornycin-like antibiotic--NSC 300886 (Table 16) was isolated by Warner(cid:173)
`Lambert Company from a fermentation. This compound is scheduled for tumor panel
`testing based on its BI 6 activity.

`
`Cranomycin-like antibiotic--NSC 287018 (Table l 7) was isolated by the Warner(cid:173)
`Lambert Company from a fermentation. It is different from NSC 300886 and, based
`on P388 activity, has been scheduled for the NCI tumor panel.
`Ascidian compound-NSC 325319 (Table 18) is a material isolated at the University
`of Houston from a tunicate. The compound is a depsipcptide whose structure is just
`being determined and this marine animal product is being tested in the C,!Itire NCI
`tumor panel. The compound has shown good activity against the Bl6 melanoma and
`has recently passed DN2A. This is the first. marine-derived product selected for pre(cid:173)
`clinical developri1ent.
`Apla~momycin-NSC 291329 (Figure 7) i-~ a boron complex isolated in the labora(cid:173)
`tories of the Institute of Microbial Chemistry in Japan from a marine Streptomyces
`(31, 34) and has shown minimal activity in B16. Because of its unusual structure and
`antiplasmodium activity it has been selected for some special testing.
`Sil~iromycin-NSC 291320 (Figure 8, Table 19) is an anthramycin analog isolated
`fron;i fermentations (2). This compound has met DN2 criteria in Bl6 and has shown
`activity in mammary carcinoma (CD). At present this compound is being evaluated
`in the NCI tumor panel.
`Neot,hramycins A and B-NSC 285223 (Figure 9, Table 20) are an anthramycin
`complex isolated from fermentation broths by Dr Umezawa's group in Japan (42).
`This complex has shown. less activity in murine tumors than sibiromycin. However,
`against the Novikoff rat hcpatoma, T/Cs of > 800 have been consistently obtained.

`This complex is being evaluated in thc,~ntirc tumor panel and is presently undergoing
`Phase l dii1ical trials in Japan. The two components of the complex, neothratnycins A
`and B, can be separated but readily interconvert in aqueous systems to an equilibrium
`mixture.
`Rapamycin-NSC 226080 (Figure IO, Table 21) is a tricnc isolated by Aycrst
`Pharmaceuticals from Strcptomyccs fermentations ( l, 40, 41, 43). Originally this
`material was found to have good anti-Candida activity. Rapamycin was selected for
`further development at NCI based on its good activity against m.ammary (CD) and
`colon (C8) tumors and the brain tu_mor> ependymoblastoma (El\.1). Development of a
`suitable formulation is now underway which will be followed by toxicology studies.
`Tripdiolide-NSC 163063 (Figure 11, Table 22). This triepoxide diterpenc (20) has
`shown good activity against murine leukemias. Several thousand pounds of plant
`material are now being processed so sufficient material will be made available for
`formulation and toxicology.
