mutagenic antibiotic
anthracyclin
doxorubicin
mutagenic antibiotic
anthracyclin
daunorubicin
mutagenic antibiotic
anthracyclin
valrubicin
mutagenic antibiotic
anthracyclin
epirubicin
mutagenic antibiotic
anthracyclin
Amscrine
mutagenic antibiotic
intercalation into DNA, double strand breaks
Dactinomycin
mutagenic antibiotic
intercalates into DNA, inhibits DNA/RNA sx
Bleomycin
mutagenic antibiotic
Binds Fe and O2, P450 reductase makes reactive species= DNA strand breaks.
DOES NOT suppress bone marrow
anaphylactic rxns, pulmonary fibrosis
Hydroxyurea
Inhibits ribonucleotide reductase, decreasing DNA sx, reduced levels of dNTPs makes cells more sensitive to nucleoside analog drugs
asparaginase
Breaks down asparagines into NH3 and aspartic acid. Childhood leukemia cells can’t make their own asparagines so inhibits protein sx. MUST give after other chemo agents b/c if inhibit protein sx, stops production of targets for other chemo drugs
pegaspargase
Polyethylene glycol conjucated version of asparaginase. less allergenic

Breaks down asparagines into NH3 and aspartic acid. Childhood leukemia cells can’t make their own asparagines so inhibits protein sx. MUST give after other chemo agents b/c if inhibit protein sx, stops production of targets for other chemo drugs
Allopurinol
reduce uric acid by inhibiting xanthine oxidase. Dead cells cause release of DNA which is metabolized to uric acid and causes gout. Purine bases are more soluble than uric acid.
Leucovorin
detoxify methotrexate
GM-CSF
G-CSF
GM-CSF (Sargramostim, LEUKINE): restore neutrophils, eosinophils and macrophages destroyed by chemo
G-CSF (filgrastim, NEUPOGEN): restore neutrophils decreased by chemo
Anthracyclin toxicities
acute arrhythmias, irreversible cardiomyopathy, heart failure, extravasation necrosis, delayed skin cancer, erythema of skin exposed to x-rays.
