Alkylating agents
|
cyclophosphamide
carmustine procarbazine cisplatin carboplatin oxaliplatin |
|
which alkylating agents are platinum complexes
|
cisplatin
carboplatin oxaliplatin nephrotox |
|
Bis(chloroethyl)amine
Must be converted by P450. |
Cyclophosphamide
|
|
Nitrosurea
non-resistant (w/ other alk’s) Lipid soluble Crosses BBB |
Carmustine
|
|
Methylhyrdazine derivative
Inhibits synthesis of DNA, RNA and protein Asoprocarbazine & H2O2 generated |
Procarbazine
|
|
Inorganic platinum complex. Cross-links DNA (N7 guanine)
Nephrotoxicity – use IV hydration & diuretics!! ototox |
Cisplatin
|
|
2nd gen platinum
|
Carboplatin
less renal tox |
|
3rd gen platinum
|
Oxaliplatin
use when resistant |
|
Antimetabolites: Folic acid antagonist
|
Methotrexate
|
|
Methotrexate
drug resistance? |
↓transport
↓Polyglutamate formation ↑DHFR synthesis ↓Affinity of DHFR for MTX |
|
Antimetabolites: Purine antagonists
|
6-MP
Cladribine |
|
Metabolized by HGPRT
6-thioinosinic acid inh. purine pathway enzymes well tolerated!! Hyperuricemia assoiciated with tumor cell lysis – give allopurinol |
Mercaptopurine
(6-MP) |
|
Mercaptopurine
(6-MP) resistance |
↓ HGPRT activity
|
|
Resistant to adenosine deaminase, thus reaches high intracellular concentrations
DNA strand breaks |
Cladribine
|
|
Antimetabolites: Pyrimidine antagonists
|
5FU
Capecitabine Cytarabine (Ara C) |
|
1. Inhibits thymidylate synthesis inhibits DNA synthesis
2. Incorporated into RNA interferes with RNA processing 3. Incorporated into DNA inhibits DNA synthesis |
5FU
|
|
5FU
|
Colorectal cancer!
|
|

Capecitabine
|
|
Capecitabine
|
Metastatic breast cancer!
Extensive liver metabolism |
