Description

Dexrazoxane is a cardioprotective drug used in patients with breast cancer to reduce cardiomyopathy associated with doxorubicin administration. Dexrazoxane is believed to act by two mechanisms: it inhibits DNA topoisomerase II and acts as a chelator for iron ions.

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide
The recommended dosage ratio of dexrazoxane to doxorubicin is 10:1 (e.g., 500 mg/m2 dexrazoxane to 50 mg/m2 doxorubicin). Do not administer doxorubicin before dexrazoxane.
Route of Administration: Intravenous
In Vitro Use Guide
Human osteoblasts P2 cells and Human ginigiva fibroblasts P2 cells were treated with zoledronic acid (50 umol/L) and the cytoprotectant dexrazoxane (600 umol/L). At that concentration dexrazoxane showed significant cytoprotective effect.
