Abstract
This study outlines a number of studies of dichloroacetic acid (DCA) and some of its derivatives. AlthoughDCA has low cytotoxic potencies, various structural modifications are described which result in potent cytotoxins. In particular, hybrid molecules created from DCA and other bioactive molecules whose modes of action differ from DCA are particularly promising as candidate anticancer agents. Considerable emphasis in this review is placed on various series of compounds that incorporate both platinum and DCA into their structures. In addition, the importance of the formulation of some of the bioactive compounds described herein is revealed.
