Since the discovery of cisplatin for antitumor activity, the platinum (Pt) based antitumor drugs have received significant attention and launched a new era to explore the transition metal complexes for therapy. However, these small Pt-based antitumor drugs have some limitations for their clinic application, such as short blood circulation time and limited accumulation at tumor site, which was mainly due to their poor water solubility and small molecule size. To overcome these obstacles, developing new generation of transition-metal based complexes as anticancer agents is urgently needed. For the unique properties, the ruthenium (Ru) based complexes have attractive significant attention and be expected to be a substitute for Pt-based anticancer agents. Due to the nanometer size, unique geometry, relatively high surface charge and unique photophysical properties, the transition-metal based supramolecular coordination complexes (SCCs) which exhibited excellent antitumor efficiency and possessed desirable bioapplications such as drug loading, bioimaging and biosensing have attracted great attention as anticancer agents. In this minireview, we will highlight the recent development of ruthenium (Ru) and Platinum (Pt) based SCCs as potential anticancer agents.
