Description
Curator's Comment: Description was created based on several sources, including http://www.ndrugs.com/?s=carboquone

Carboquone (CQ) is an anticancer alkylating agent synthesized and developed by Arakawa et al. (Sankyo Co, Ltd.) in 1970, having chemical structure, 2,5-bis-(1-aziridinyl)-3-(2-carbamoyloxy-1-methoxyethyl)-6-methyl- 1,4- benzoquinone. The antitumor efficacies of CQ were reported as excellent, however, the side effects are considerably strong. Carboquone is used to treat various forms of cancer. It is indicated for the treatment of metastatic testicular tumors, metastatic ovarian tumors and advanced bladder cancer.
