Sepantronium Bromide(YM155) is a potent survivin suppressant by inhibiting Survivin promoter activity with IC50 of 0 54 nM in HeLa-SURP-luc and CHO-SV40-luc cells does not significantly inhibit SV40 promoter activity but is observed to slightly inhibit the interaction of Survivin with XIAP YM155 down-regulates survivin and XIAP modulates autophagy and induces autophagy-dependent DNA damage in breast cancer cells Phase 2
