Pyrrolobenzodiazepine

Pyrrolobenzodiazepines (PBD) are a class of compound that may have antibiotic or anti-tumor properties.[1]

Anthramycin contains pyrrolobenzodiazepine core

Some dimeric pyrrolobenzodiazepines are used as the cytotoxic drug payloads in antibody-drug conjugates, for example in SGN-CD33A.
