Lomustine Chemical Properties,Uses,Production
Description
Lomustine is a pale yellow powder. Molecularweight = 233.73; Freezing/Melting point = 90℃. Insolublein water.
Chemical Properties
Lomustine is a pale yellow powder.
Uses
Chloroethylnitrosourea derivative with antitumor activity. Similar to carmustine, chlorozotocin, nimustine, ranimustine. Antineoplastic.
Uses
Lomustine USP is used to treat Malignant brain tumors; Hodgkin’s disease.
Uses
CCNU is an oral anticancer drug that was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 1976 for marketing, as lomustine (FDA 2009a). CCNU is used alone or in combination with other antineoplastic agents, including procarbazine and vincristine, etoposide and prednimustine, and other combinations (IARC 1981, HSDB 2009). It is used primarily in the treatment of Hodgkin’s disease and brain tumors, but it has also been used to treat other cancer, includ-ing lung cancer, non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, malignant melanoma, breast cancer, kidney cancer, and cancer of the gastrointestinal tract (MedlinePlus 2009). It has also been applied to the skin to treat mycosis fungoides and psoriasis.
Definition
ChEBI: An N-nitrosourea that is urea in which one of the nitrogens is substituted by a 2-chloroethyl group and by a nitroso group, while the other nitrogen is substituted by a cyclohexyl group. An alkylating antineoplastic agent, it is used in he treatment of brain tumours, lung cancer, malignant melanoma and other solid tumours.
brand name
Ceenu (Bristol-Myers Squibb).

General Description
Lomustine is available in 10-, 40-, and 100-mg capsules fororal administration in the treatment of primary and metastaticbrain cancers and Hodgkin’s lymphoma. This lipophilicagent is well absorbed, widely distributed, and crosses theblood-brain barrier. Lomustine undergoes extensive hepaticmetabolism, which is mediated by CYP3A4 to give severalhydroxylated metabolites, which arise as a result of oxidationof the cyclohexyl ring. Several of these are more activethan the parent compound. Denitrosation and dechlorinationhave also been demonstrated to occur for lomustine as well.The intact drug was not found in plasma when the agent wasadministered orally. Elimination occurs primarily in theurine with an elimination half-life of 16 to 72 hours.Myelosuppression is dose limiting and presents in a mannersimilar to that seen with carmustine. Other toxicities includenausea, vomiting, anorexia, impotence, sterility, amenorrhea,and infertility. Pulmonary and renal toxicity are rarelyseen during standard-dose therapy but increase during highdosetherapy.
Biological Activity
lomustine is an antineoplastic drug used in chemotherapy [1]lomustine has been revealed to inhibit the growth of tumour cell lines with ic50 values of 25μm, 8.8μm and 13μm for breast zr-75-1, astrocytoma u87mg and colorectal ls174t cell lines [2]. besides, lomustine has been found to be particularly effective in the treatment of certain neoplasms of the central nervous system, because of the high lipid solubility and permeability through the blood brain barrier. in addition, lomustine has shown the effect function in treatment of meningeal leukemia in the mouse and in children who have acute leukemia with central nervous system involvement [1].
Biochem/physiol Actions
Antineoplastic agent with cellular DNA effects. Lomustine induces p53 expression in A2870 cells.
Mechanism of action
Like other nitrosoureas, lomustine acts as a DNA-alkylating agent, and it also inhibits various key enzymatic reactions by carbamoylating proteins.
Safety Profile
Confirmed carcinogen with experimental carcinogenic and tumorigenic data. Poison by ingestion, intraperitoneal, subcutaneous, intravenous, and possibly other routes. Human systemic effects by ingestion: anorexia, nausea or vomiting, leukopenia (decrease in the white blood cell count), and thrombocytopenia (decrease in the number of blood platelets). Experimental teratogenic and reproductive effects. Human mutation data reported. When heated to decomposition it emits very toxic fumes of Cland NOx. See also NNITROSO COMPOUNDS.
Synthesis
Lomustine, 1-(2-chloroethyl)-3-cyclohexyl-1-nitrosourea (30.2.4.3), is made by reacting ethanolamine with cyclohexylisocyanate, which forms 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-3- cyclohexylurea (30.2.4.1). Upon reaction with thionyl chloride, the hydroxyl group in it is replaced with a chlorine atom, giving 1-(2-chloroethyl)-3-cyclohexylurea (30.2.4.2). This is nitrated in non-aqueous conditions with formic acid and sodium nitrite to give lomustine (30.2.4.3).
Potential Exposure
A potential danger to those involved in the manufacture, administration or consumption of this antineoplastic (anti-cancer) agent
Veterinary Drugs and Treatments
Lomustine may be useful in the adjunctive treatment of CNS neoplasms, lymphomas, and mast cell tumors in dogs and cats.
Drug interactions
Potentially hazardous interactions with other drugs
Antipsychotics: avoid concomitant use with
clozapine (increased risk of agranulocytosis).
First aid
If this chemical gets into the eyes, remove anycontact lenses at once and irrigate immediately for at least15 min, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids. Seek medical attention immediately. If this chemical contacts theskin, remove contaminated clothing and wash immediatelywith soap and water. Seek medical attention immediately. Ifthis chemical has been inhaled, remove from exposure,begin rescue breathing (using universal precautions, including resuscitation mask) if breathing has stopped and CPR ifheart action has stopped. Transfer promptly to a medicalfacility. When this chemical has been swallowed, get medical attention. Give large quantities of water and inducevomiting. Do not make an unconscious person vomit.
Carcinogenicity
1-(2-Chloroethyl)-3-cyclohexyl-1-nitrosourea (CCNU) is reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen based on sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity from studies in experimental animals.
Metabolism
After oral application of radioactive marked lomustine approximately 15–30% of the measured radioactivity in the plasma can be detected in the cerebrospinal fluid. Lomustine is rapidly metabolised through hepatic microsomal enzymes and the metabolites are excreted mainly via the kidneys. About half a dose is excreted as metabolites in the urine within 24 hours and about 75% is excreted within 4 days. In addition, 10% is excreted as CO2 and<5% excreted in the faeces. Lomustine cannot be detected in its active form in the urine at any time.
storage
Color Code—Blue: Health Hazard/Poison: Storein a secure poison location. Prior to working with thischemical you should be trained on its proper handling andstorage. Store in tightly closed containers in a cool, wellventilated area. A regulated, marked area should be established where this chemical is handled, used, or stored incompliance with OSHA Standard 1910.1045.
