Description

Application

Dacarbazine is a triazine antineoplastic agent that is used for DNA methylation via formation of methyl adducts. It is used to treat metastatic malignant melanomas and Hodgkin′s when used in combination with other antineoplastic agents.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Dacarbazine is a purine analog of naturally occurring purine precursor 5-amino-1H-imidazole-4-carboxamide (AIC). It is a synthetic triazine antineoplastic agent that exerts cytotoxic effects by acting as an alkylating agent and by inhibiting DNA synthesis and inducing apoptosis. It is known to induce hepatotoxicity in mice. Dacarbazine is not cell cycle-phase specific.

Other Notes

Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place.
