Cancer Flashcards
Alkylating drugs
Nonspecific
x-link DNA
Cyclophosphamine Chlorambucil Melphalan Lomustine Procarbazine Cisplatin Carboplatin
Alkylating drugs
Mustard gas derivatives
Cyclophosphamine
Chlorambucil
Melphan
Cyclophosphamine
Require liver activation = acrolein (cause hemmoragic cystitis)
Tx: pred(diuretic) n-acelylcytene(antioxidant)
MESNA = antidote
SIADHS (hyponatremia via innaproprate ADH)
=lymphoma/hemangiosarcoma
Chlorambucil
Non specific alkylating agent Mustard gas deriv xlink DNA
Sub for clyclophosphamine (dec toxicity but dec efficacy)
KEEP COLD
= chronic lymphocytic leukemia and feline small cell lymphoma
Melphalan
Non specific alkylating agent Mustard gas deriv xlink DNA
=multiple myeloma
Lomustine
Non specific alkylating agent nitrosourease xlink DNA
90% PO absorption
Hepatotoxicity (tx:alipoic acid)
CROSS BBB
= lymphoma in brain
Procarbazine
Non specific alkylating agent non nitro deriv xlink DNA
“Maryland”
Rescue drug only use when others not working
Cisplatin
Non specific alkylating agent Platinum derivative deriv xlink DNA
“Plantol” *KILLS CATS* Inc proton binding = local effect (esp horses) Renal toxicity and severe nausea Not common in vet med = osteosarcoma and SCC
Carboplatin
Non specific alkylating agent Platinum derivative deriv xlink DNA “Paraplatin” Feline safe! More commonly used for dec toxicity W/ cancer vaccine = osteosarcoma
Anti cancer Antibiotics
Phase nonspecific
Anthracyclines
Inhibit topoisomerase II
Vesicants
Doxorubicin
Actinomyces D
Mitoxantrone
Doxorubicin
Phase nonspecific antibiotic inhibit topoisomerase II vesicant
Dose dec if bilirubin inc
*CARDIOTOXICITY and Anaphylaxis
Secretion on active form esp in cats
Dexrazone (zinecard)= protective against for toxicity
= lymphoma and sub for carboplatin for osteosarcoma sand hemangiosarcoma a
Major side effect/ toxicity of doxorubicin
Besicant and cardiotoxicity
Protective agent for doxorubicin toxicity
Derazone
Actinomycin D
Phase nonspecific antibiotic inhibit topoisomerase II vesicant
Non cardio toxic sub for doxorubicin =lymphoma
Fecal and urine excretion
Mitoxantrone
Phase nonspecific antibiotic inhibit topoisomerase II vesicant
No free radical damage (dec effectiveness)
Expensive (blue green urine)
= TCC + thymomas
