In this invention, a novel cancer drug is formed by Cu(II) and Fe(III) binding the 730 sunken lake road medicinal molecule Paclitaxel (PAC).This complexation increases the water solubility of the taxane, alters the structure so resistance mechanisms do not recognize it, and adds additional toxicity.The copper (II) species can generate reactive oxidation species (ROS) and randomly bind and distort proteins hbl5266ca within a cancer cell.Cu(II) also plays a role in accelerating angiogenesis and creates a Trojan horse effect that increases its uptake rate by the cancer cells.The empirical formula for the complex is CuxFeyPAC1, where X + Y equals a value between 0 and 10.
