CAS 24584-09-6: Dexrazoxane
Description:Dexrazoxane is a synthetic compound primarily used as a cardioprotective agent in cancer therapy, particularly to mitigate the cardiotoxic effects of anthracycline chemotherapy agents like doxorubicin. It functions as a topoisomerase II inhibitor and is also known for its ability to chelate iron, thereby reducing oxidative stress and free radical formation in cardiac tissues. Dexrazoxane is typically administered intravenously and is characterized by its relatively low solubility in water, which can influence its formulation and delivery. The compound has a molecular formula that reflects its complex structure, and it is classified as a member of the class of compounds known as benzamides. Its efficacy and safety profile have been evaluated in various clinical settings, leading to its approval for use in specific patient populations. While it is generally well-tolerated, potential side effects may include myelosuppression and gastrointestinal disturbances. Overall, dexrazoxane plays a crucial role in enhancing the therapeutic index of certain chemotherapeutic regimens by protecting the heart from damage.
