Amonafide (originally AS1413) (INN, trade names Quinamed and Xanafide) was a drug that was being studied in the treatment of cancer. It belongs to a novel family of chemotherapeutic drugs called Naphthalimides and is a potential topoisomerase inhibitor and DNA intercalator.[1][2]
It was being developed as an anti-cancer therapy by Antisoma.[3]
As of 2008[update], it is in Phase III clinical trials. e.g. In March 2010 it is Phase III trial against secondary acute myeloid leukaemia (AML).[4] In June 2010, it gained an FDA Fast Track Status for the treatment of Secondary Acute Myeloid Leukaemia.[citation needed]
