Three decades since the introduction of cisplatin into clinical cancer treatment, this drug and its second generation analogues, carboplatin and oxaliplatin, form an integral part of recent evolving achievements in the treatment of solid tumors. For example, landmark studies have established a role for cisplatin after resection in lung cancer, and improved survival from platinum-based chemoradiation in cancer of the uterine cervix and combination chemotherapy in mesothelioma, small cell lung, ovarian, and endometrial cancers. Colon cancer survival has improved with the addition of oxaliplatin to its treatment. Here we summarize how insights into the mechanism of action of platinum compounds and studies of their structure-activity relationships may identify platinums with unusual selectivity towards tumors such as melanoma, renal cell, and breast cancer and other cancers not usually treated with existing platinums. Both new drug development and mechanistic studies with established drugs should lead to the next generation of clinical studies with platinum compounds, and their integration with emerging 'targeted therapies'.
