Maleimide and succinimide derivatives were found to be effective topoisomerase II catalytic inhibitors. Due to this property, the maleimide and succinimide derivatives were investigated for their use as cytostatic agents and thus in the treatment of cancer. The compounds of the invention can be used in combination treatments with other cytostatic agents, such as topoisomerase II poisons. The maleimide and succinimide derivatives, due to their effective topoisomerase II catalytic inhibitory activity, are also useful as extravasation agents, such as upon administration of a topoisomerase II poison.
