New clerodane diterpene, 16-hydroxy-pentandralactone (1) and known diterpene acuminolide (2) were isolated from the methanol extract of Vitex cofassus leaves. The chemical structure and the absolute configuration of 1 were determined by MS, NMR and electron circular dichroism (ECD) experiments. The isolated compounds were evaluated for their antiproliferative activities against a panel of human tumor cell lines, including a multidrug-resistant (MDR) cell line. Both compounds showed potent antiproliferative activities against all the tested cell lines with IC50 values of 5.4-11.4 µM. Their effects on cell viability were also tested using vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-stimulated human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Compound 1 inhibited VEGF-stimulated HUVEC proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. Based on these results, compound 1 could be a candidate for antitumor agent and inhibitor of angiogenesis
