NCIt definition : A synthetic diethylaminoethyl analogue of the indolocarbazole glycoside antineoplastic
antibiotic rebeccamycin. Becatecarin intercalates into DNA and stabilizes the DNA-topoisomerase
I complex, thereby interfering with the topoisomerase I-catalyzed DNA breakage-reunion
reaction and initiating DNA cleavage and apoptosis. (NCI04);
Alternative definition : NCI-GLOSS: A substance that is being studied in the treatment of cancer. It belongs
to the families of drugs called antitumor antibiotics and topoisomerase inhibitors.;
