Overview

**Gd-DOTA-colchicinic acid** is an experimental small-molecule theranostic conjugate comprising a gadolinium(III)-DOTA magnetic-resonance-imaging chelate linked to colchicinic acid, a colchicine derivative. It binds tubulin and destabilizes microtubules, producing cytotoxic and vascular-disrupting effects, while the gadolinium chelate enables T1-weighted MRI contrast enhancement. In ovarian carcinoma cell lines and OVCAR-3 xenografts, the compound produced tubulin-destabilization-associated cellular changes and central tumor necrosis while reducing tumor T1 relaxation time. It has been reported only in preclinical academic research and has no known marketed product or regulatory approval. ([pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21410265/))
