Acridine carboxamide is an chemotherapy agent that is being studied in the treatment of cancer. It belongs to the family of drugs called topoisomerase inhibitors.

While the agent was well tolerated in Phase II clinical trials, it did not show efficacy when tested against various types of cancers.[1][2][3][4]
