NCIt definition : An orally bioavailable second-generation selective apoptotic antineoplastic drug (SAAND)
and analog of the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) sulindac, with potential
pro-apoptotic and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration, CP-461 specifically
binds to and blocks the activity of cyclic guanosine monophosphate-phosphodiesterase
(cGMP-PDE), an enzyme that inhibits the normal apoptosis signal pathway. Inhibition
of cGMP-PDE permits the apoptotic signal pathway to proceed unopposed, resulting in
apoptotic cell death. cGMP-PDE is overexpressed in a variety of cancer cell types;
therefore, CP-461 selectively induces apoptosis in cancer cells, with minimal or no
effect in healthy cells.;
