alkylating agent - attacks guaine N7
Cyclophosphamide
Hemorrhagic cystitis
Cyclophosphamide
Antidote for hemorrhagic cystitis and why?
Mesna, traps acrolein
Nephrotoxic
Cisplatin, methotrexate
Hepatotoxic
6-MP, busulfan, cyclophosphamide
Pulmonary toxicity
bleomycin, busulfan, procarbazine
Cardiotoxic
Doxorubicin, daunorubicin
Neurotoxic
Vincristine, cisplatin, paclitaxel
Immunosuppressive
Cyclophosphamide, methotrexate
Alkylating agent - cross-links DNA
Cisplatin
Nitrosureas
Major side effects of Cisplatin and their treatment
Nausea, vomiting (use ondansetron)
Nephrotoxicity (use amifostine)
Neurotoxic= deafness
Alkylating agent with pulmonary toxicity
Procarbazine

other side effects = bone marrow suppression, hemolysis, neurotoxic, and leukemogenic
Inhibits topoisomerase
Forms free radicals
Intercalator
Doxorubicin
Side effect of Doxorubicin and antidote

How does it work?

Other side effects.
Delayed CHF (use dexrazoxane)

dexrazoxane prevents formation of free radicals

other side effects = alopecia, vescant, radiation "recall"
Bone marrow suppression, mucositis, crystalluria
Methotrexate

Use leucovorin for rescue (folinic acid)
Inhibits DHF reductase

Neurotoxic
Vinblastine S/E
Bone marrow suppression, GI, alopecia
Most common reason for dose-limitation
Bone marrow suppression
Doesn't suppress bone marrow
Cisplastin, bleomycin, vincristine
Inhibits ribonucleotide reductase
Hydroxyurea (results in decreased DNA synthesis)
Anticancer drug also used for sickle cell anemia
Hydroxyurea

also used for myeloproliferative disorders (CML, polycythemia vera) and melanoma
Competitive inhibitor of tyrosine kinase
Imatinib

Used in CML, GISTs & Brain tumors
Monoclonal antibody against HER-2/neu
Trastuzumab
(breast cancer)

Dexrazoxane
Doxorubicin
Mercaptoethanesulfonate
(mesna) Cyclophosphamide
Folinic acid
(leucovorin) Methotrexate
Cause of resistance to 6-MP
Decrease activity of enzyme HGPRT. A purine salvage enzyme which activates 6-MP.
