Description and Uses

Gemcitabine is a novel nucleoside analog that was launched in 1995 in the Netherlands for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (nsclc) and in Sweden for pancreatic cancer. Gemcitabine is a prodrug which is phosphorylated intracellularly by deoxycytadine kinase to its active forms, the di- and triphosphates which bind to DNA competitively. This insertion inhibits processes required for DNA synthesis and metabolism, the essential function for both cell replication and repair. Furthermore, gemcitabine displays an extraordinary array of self-potentiating mechanisms that increase the concentration and prolong the retention of its active nucleotides in tumor cells. The title compound has shown activity against a wide spectrum of human solid tumors including colon, mammary, breast, bladder cancers. Synergistic activity of gemcitabine with other anticancer agents such as cisplatin has been reported.

An antineoplastic.
