Cyclophosphamide

(+,-)-2-(Bis(2-chloroethyl)amino)tetrahydro-2H-1,3,2-oxazaphosphorine 2-oxide monohydrate

Precursor of an alkylating nitrogen mustard antineoplastic and immunosuppressive agent that must be activated in the liver to form the active aldophosphamide. It has been used in the treatment of lymphoma and leukemia. Its side effect, alopecia, has been used for defleecing sheep. Cyclophosphamide may also cause sterility, birth defects, mutations, and cancer.

Chlorambucil

N,N-Di-2-chloroethyl-gamma-p-aminophenylbutyric acid

C14H19Cl2NO2 (303.0792774)

A nitrogen mustard alkylating agent used as antineoplastic agent for the treatment of various malignant and nonmalignant diseases. Although it is less toxic than most other nitrogen mustards, it has been listed as a known carcinogen in the Fourth Annual Report on Carcinogens (NTP 85-002, 1985).

Mechlorethamine

Merck frosst brand OF mechlorethamine hydrochloride

C5H11Cl2N (155.02685060000002)

Mechlorethamine is only found in individuals that have used or taken this drug. It is a vesicant and necrotizing irritant destructive to mucous membranes. It was formerly used as a war gas. The hydrochloride is used as an antineoplastic in Hodgkins disease and lymphomas. It causes severe gastrointestinal and bone marrow damage. [PubChem]Alkylating agents work by three different mechanisms: 1) attachment of alkyl groups to DNA bases, resulting in the DNA being fragmented by repair enzymes in their attempts to replace the alkylated bases, preventing DNA synthesis and RNA transcription from the affected DNA, 2) DNA damage via the formation of cross-links (bonds between atoms in the DNA) which prevents DNA from being separated for synthesis or transcription, and 3) the induction of mispairing of the nucleotides leading to mutations. Mechlorethamine is cell cycle phase-nonspecific.

4-Hydroxycyclophosphamide

Tetrahydro-2-(bis(2-chloroethyl)amino)-2H-1,3,2-oxazaphosphorin-4-ol 2-oxide

C7H15Cl2N2O3P (276.019731)

4-Hydroxycyclophosphamide is a primary activation metabolite of cyclophosphamide and of mafosfamide (an experimental drug) after they partially metabolized by cytochrome P450 (PMID: 12021633). Cyclophosphamide is a chemotherapeutic used to suppress the immune system and to treat several cancers including lymphoma, multiple myeloma, leukemia, ovarian cancer, breast cancer and small cell lung cancer. After cyclphosphamide is converted to 4-hydroxycyclophosphamide it is then partially tautomerized into aldophosphamide, which easily enters live cells whereupon it is partially detoxified into inactive carboxycyclophosphamide by the enzyme ALDH. 4-Hydroxycyclophosphamide is also an intermediate metabolite in the formation of phosphoramide mustard, the active metabolite, and acrolein, the metabolite responsible for much of the toxicity associated with cyclophosphamides (PMID: 7059981). 4-Hydroxycyclophosphamide is not cytotoxic at physiologic pH, readily diffuses into cells and spontaneously decomposes into the active phosphoramide mustard. In human liver microsomes, 4-Hydroxycyclophosphamide formation correlates with known phenotypic markers of CYP2B6 activity, specifically formation of (S)-2-ethyl-1,5-dimethyl-3,3-diphenyl pyrrolidine and hydroxybupropion. In addition, it is reported that the CYP2B6 genotype is not consistently related to 4-Hydroxycyclophosphamide formation in vitro or in vivo (PMID: 21976622). 4-Hydroxycyclophosphamide is only found in individuals who have consumed the drug cyclophosphamide.

4-Ketocyclophosphamide

2-[bis(2-chloroethyl)amino]-1,3,2λ⁵-oxazaphosphinane-2,4-dione

C7H13Cl2N2O3P (274.0040818)

4-Ketocyclophosphamide is a metabolite of cyclophosphamide. Cyclophosphamide (trade names Endoxan, Cytoxan, Neosar, Procytox, Revimmune), also known as cytophosphane, is a nitrogen mustard alkylating agent, from the oxazophorines group. An alkylating agent adds an alkyl group (CnH2n+1) to DNA. It attaches the alkyl group to the guanine base of DNA, at the number 7 nitrogen atom of the imidazole ring. It is used to treat various types of cancer and some autoimmune disorders.

Carboxyphosphamide

3-({amino[bis(2-chloroethyl)amino]phosphoryl}oxy)propanoic acid

C7H15Cl2N2O4P (292.014646)

In contrast to previous adult studies on urinary metabolites, plasma carboxyphosphamide concentrations did not support the existence of polymorphic metabolism. Plasma concentrations of dechlorethylcyclophosphamide and carboxyphosphamide were correlated in individual patients, suggesting that the activity of both aldehyde dehydrogenase and cytochrome P450 enzyme(s) determine carboxyphosphamide production in vivo. (PMID: 7850793) Detoxification of cyclophosphamide is effected, in part, by hepatic class 1 aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH-1)-catalyzed oxidation of aldophosphamide, a pivotal aldehyde intermediate, to the nontoxic metabolite, carboxyphosphamide. (PMID: 9394035) A key finding was the detection of a metabolite, most likely carboxyphosphamide, that is formed only by cytosols from cells expressing either class 3 or class 1 ALDH.
