Chlorpromazine HCl is an orally effective, blood-brain-permeable phenothiazine antipsychotic that can effectively antagonize D2 dopamine receptors and 5-HT2A and has a strong sedative effect[1, 2]. Chlorpromazine HCl has anticancer activities, including anti-proliferation, induction of cell autophagy and cell cycle arrest, inhibition of cytochrome c oxidase, inhibition of tumor growth and metastasis, and inhibition of tumor immune escape[3]. Chlorpromazine HCl can block hNav1.7 channels and hERG potassium channels[4, 5].
In vitro, treatment of U-87MG cells with Chlorpromazine HCl (10-40μM) for 24h and 48h reduced cell viability, cell proliferation, and intracellular cyclin A and cyclin B1 levels in a dose- and time-dependent manner[6]. Chlorpromazine HCl (10μM) treatment of mouse bone marrow cells for 1h significantly inhibited the internalization of small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) and significantly reduced the number of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs)[7].
In vivo, Chlorpromazine HCl (20mg/kg) was intraperitoneally injected into U-87MG glioma cell xenograft mice for 24 days and significantly inhibited tumor growth, with a tumor growth inhibition rate of 43.5% on day 24[6].

Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | U-87MG cells |
Preparation Method | U-87MG cells (2×103 cells per sample) seeded into 96 well plates were treated with Chlorpromazine HCl at increasing concentrations (0, 10, 20 and 40μM) for different time periods (0, 24 and 48h). Determination of cell viability and cell proliferation. |
Reaction Conditions | 0-40μM; 24, 48h |
Applications | Chlorpromazine HCl decreases cell viability and proliferation in a dose- and time-dependent manner. |
Animal experiment [1]: | |
Animal models | Athymic nude mice |
Preparation Method | U-87MG glioma cells (1×106 cells in 100μl serum-free DMEM) were inoculated subcutaneously into the right flank of 5- to 6-week-old athymic nude mice. When tumors reached an average volume of ~100mm3, 100μl of PBS (control) or Chlorpromazine HCl (20mg/kg) were injected intraperitoneally daily. Mice were killed on day 24 by exposure to CO2 to compare tumor size of skin xenograft tumors. |
Dosage form | 20mg/kg; i.p. |
Applications | Chlorpromazine HClCPZ treatment significantly inhibited xenograft tumor growth compared with PBS (control) treatment, with a tumor growth inhibition rate of 43.5% on day 24. |
