Clioquinol (5-chloro-7-iodo-quinolin-8-ol) was used in the 1950's-1970's as an oral anti-parasitic agent. More recently, studies have demonstrated that Clioquinol displays preclinical efficacy in the treatment of malignancy. Its anti-cancer activity relates, at least in part, to its ability to inhibit

Clioquinol, originally marketed as an oral intestinal amebicide, was widely used for multiple intestinal disorders. Its use as an oral agent was, however, discontinued because of its possible association with subacute myelo-optico-neuropathy or SMON. Meanwhile, its use for neurodegenerative diseases

Clioquinol is a small-molecule metal ionophore that inhibits the proteasome through a metal-dependent mechanism. Here, we report a phase I study of clioquinol in patients with refractory hematologic malignancies. Neuropathy and abdominal pain were dose-limiting toxicities. Minimal pharmacodynamic effects were
