Alkylating agents
-Transfer alkyl group to cellular elements
-Alkylation of DNA
-Drug – Cyclization – ethyleimonium ion – transfer
alkyl group to DNA
Nitrosoureas
-Carbamoylation of lysine of proteins
-Single strand or both strands – BIFUNCTIONAL
-DNA Strand breakage
-Cross linking of DNA
-CCNS.
-Mostly in late G1 & S
Pharmacological effects :
- Dose related ADR. On rapidly growing tissue
-Carinogenic – Secondary esp. AML
-VESICANT
CYCLOPHOSPHAMIDE
NITROSOUREAS:
-Not cross resistant with other alkylating agents
-Enter BBB- lipid soluble – Brain tumors
-Oral administration
-STREPTOZOCIN
ADR• Acrolein is the metabolite
• Responsible for causing hemorrhagic cystitis– Suprapubic pain– Hematuria– Cyctoscopic findings
• ***This is prevented/treated by MESNA (mercaptoethanesulfonate)
• Rarely cyclophosphamide can cause SIADH and pulmonary toxicity
NON CLASSICAL ALKYLATING AGENTS:
PROCARBAZINE: Hodgkin's, Non – Hodgkin's, Brain
-Microsomal enzymes – azoprocarbazine + H2O2
-One metabolite – weak MAOI
-Increase risk of secondary cancer
DACARBAZINE
-Activation in liver monomethyl derivative
diazomethane, methyl Carbonium ion cytotoxic
-Malignant melanoma, HL, Soft tissue sarcomas,
neuroblastoma.
-Potent vesicant
BENDAMUSTINE:
-Bi functional
PLATINUM ANALOGS: Cisplatin
Carboplatin
Oxatiplatin
-Kill cells in all stage of cell cycle
-Synergism with alkylating agents, fluoropyrimidines &
taxanes.
-vigorous hydration – Renal toxicity.
-Oxaliplatin + 5-FU + leucovorin – FOLFOX regimen – metastatic colorectal cancer
- Severe nausea & vomiting
Neurotoxicity- dose limiting.

Antimetabolits: sites of drug action
Methotrexate (MTX)• MTX is a folic acid analog that binds with high
affinity to the active catalytic site of dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR)
• Thus it interferes with the synthesis of tetrahydrofolate (THF)
• THF serves as the key one-carbon carrier for enzymatic processes involved in de novo synthesis of thymidylate, purine nucleotides, and the amino acids serine and methionine.
• Inhibition of these various metabolic processes thereby interferes with the formation of DNA, RNA, and key cellular proteins.
Mechanism of Resistance
1. Decreased drug transport
2. Altered DHFR3. Decreased
polyglutamate formation
4. Increased levels of DHFR
Contd..• Most commonly used anticancer drug. • Cell cycle specific (CCS) drug and acts during S phase
of the cell cycle. • Antineoplastic, immunosuppressant and
antiinflammatory• Used in RA, psoriasis • Well absorbed orally; can also be given IM, IV or
intrathecally**. • It is bound to plasma proteins, does not cross the BBB
and most of the drug is excreted unchanged in urine.• It is a weak acid and so is excreted better at high urine
pH. Appropriate hydration and alkalinizing the urine is important to prevent renal tox with MTX
Leucovorin Rescue
Mechanism of action of methotrexate and the effect of administration of leucovorin.
• FH2 = dihydrofolate• FH4 = tetrahydrofolate• dTMP = deoxythymidine
monophosphate• dUMP = deoxyuridine mono
phosphate.
