Title: Antineoplastic activity and cytotoxicity of flavones, isoflavones, and flavanones.

Authors: Edwards JM, Raffauf RF, Le Quesne PW.

Abstract: Several hundred flavonoid derivatives, natural and synthetic, which have been tested in the screening program of the National Cancer Institute, have been examined for indications of structure-activity relationships which might exist among these compounds. No such relationships are apparent. In spite of occasional activity these compounds do not warrant further detailed pursuit as anti-tumor agents.
