Summary

Therapy of malignant tumors is among the oldest and at the same time the most promising application areas of therapeutic metal complexes. The second part of our survey on metallopharmaceuticals deals with historical development and current state of coordination compounds in cancer therapy. It starts with the most famous and most successful metallodrug – cisplatin. After a brief account of the discovery of the anticancer properties of this substance follows the discussion of its chemical properties, toxicity, clinical application and resistance. Hereafter, complexes of other metals along with innovative research directions are addressed. The aim of this brief survey is to provide basic overview of the area of metallopharmacy, aimed at specialists in pharmacy and chemistry as well as at the general educated public.

Keywords:

bioinorganic chemistry – metallopharmaceuticals – metal complexes – Chemotherapy – platinum – ruthenium
