== History == ==Drug development==
It was invented by Professor Nicholas Farrell at ] in the ]. The development of this drug came from his earlier work looking at dinuclear platinum derivatives of cisplatin, research he began in the late 1980s. Similar work was also being undertaken by Dr John Broomhead at the ] in Australia. BBR3464 was patented in the mid-1990s and was originally licensed to the pharmaceutical company ]. In preclinical trials, it demonstrated cytotoxic activity in cancer cell lines which have either intrinsic or acquired resistance to cisplatin. On this basis it entered Phase I (Toxicity) clinical trials under the auspices of Novuspharma before the rights were transferred to Cell Therapeutics. Triplatin belongs to the anticancer class of polynuclear platinum complexes (PPCs), developed in the laboratory of Professor Nicholas Farrell, where one or more platinum centers are linked by amine ligands. BBR3464 was patented in the mid-1990s and clinical development and licensing was performed initially by Boehringer Mannheim Italia and eventually by the pharmaceutical company Roche, when clinical development was led by Novuspharma. In preclinical trials it demonstrated cytotoxic activity in cancer cell lines that had either intrinsic or acquired resistance to cisplatin. Triplatin remains the only “non-classical” platinum drug (not based on the cisplatin structure) to have entered human clinical trials. Phase I and Phase II clinical results have been summarized.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Farrell |first1=Nicholas P. | name-list-style = vanc |title=Progress in Platinum-Derived Drug Development. |journal=Drugs of the Future |date=2012 |volume=37 |issue=11 |pages=795–806 |doi=10.1358/dof.2012.037.011.1830167|s2cid=75603138 }}</ref>

This drug is currently undergoing Phase II (Efficacy) trials with mixed results. So far trials of the drug with patients suffering from ovarian cancer, small cell lung cancer and gastric or gastro-oesophageal adenocarcinomas have been reported in the literature.


== Mode of action == == Mode of action ==
The main target of triplatin is cellular DNA, similar to cisplatin. The drug forms novel adducts with DNA, structurally distinct from those formed by cisplatin. More recently, cellular accumulation mediated by heparan sulfate proteoglycans and high-affinity ] (GAG) binding indicates that cationic PPCs are intrinsically dual-function agents, acting by mechanisms discrete from the neutral, mononuclear agents.<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Tsotsoros SD, Lutz PB, Daniel AG, Peterson EJ, de Paiva RE, Rivera E, Qu Y, Bayse CA, Farrell NP | display-authors = 6 | title = 2+ for HIVNCp7 targeting | journal = Chemical Science | volume = 8 | issue = 2 | pages = 1269–1281 | date = February 2017 | pmid = 28451269 | pmc = 5355868 | doi = 10.1039/c6sc02515c }}</ref>
The main target of triplatin is cellular DNA, similar to cisplatin. Outside of the cell, the concentration of chloride (approx. 100 millimolar) prevents the drugs from hydrolysing, but once inside the cell, where the concentration of chloride drops to between 4 and 20 millimolar, the chloride ligands of BBR3464 come off and the drug is capable of forming coordinate covalent bonds with purine bases on DNA. The novel adducts BBR3464 forms with DNA are though to be the mechanism by which this drug acts; the adducts are able to prevent DNA transcription and replication, thus inducing cell apoptosis.

== Side-effects ==
All platinum based drugs, and particularly BBR3464, cause large dose limiting side-effects. For BBR3464 these are largely diarrhea, cramps and vomiting, but are so severe that the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) in humans is between 0.9 to 1.1 milligrams per square metre. This is considerably lower than the MTD for all the platinum based drugs currently used in the clinic, like cisplatin (60–120 mg) and carboplatin (approx. 800 mg).

In phase I studies, when given once every 28 days, the main dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) of Triplatin (BBR 3464) were neutropenia and diarrhea encountered at a dose level of 1.1&nbsp;mg/m2.
