In the present study, synergism in activity from the sequenced combinations of monofunctional platinum tris(benzimidazole)monochloroplatinum(II) chloride (coded as LH4) with capsaicin, quercetin, curcumin and cisplatin was investigated as a function of sequence of administration in a number of human ovarian tumor models. Cellular accumulations of platinum and the levels of platinum-DNA binding were also determined for the 0/0 h and 4/0 sequences of administration. LH4 was found to be more active against the resistant A2780(cisR) and A2780(ZD0473R) cell lines than the parent A2780 cell line. As applied to combinations of LH4 with phytochemicals capsaicin, quercetin and curcumin, bolus administration was found to be most synergistic in both the parent A2780 and the resistant A2780(cisR) cell lines. For the combinations of LH4 with cisplatin, additiveness was observed in both the resistant cell lines but mild synergism was observed in the parent cell line. Greater activity of designed monofunctional platinum LH4 against resistant tumor models and synergism from combinations with phytochemicals indicate that the compound has the potential for development as a novel platinum-based anticancer drug.
