Description

Idarubicin is a monosaccharide derivative, an anthracycline antibiotic and a deoxy hexoside. It derives from a hydride of a tetracene.|An orally administered anthracycline antineoplastic. The compound has shown activity against breast cancer, lymphomas and leukemias, together with the potential for reduced cardiac toxicity.|Idarubicin is an Anthracycline Topoisomerase Inhibitor. The mechanism of action of idarubicin is as a Topoisomerase Inhibitor.|Doxorubicin, epirubicin, idarubicin and valrubicin are structurally related cytotoxic antineoplastic antibiotics used in the therapy of several forms of lymphoma, leukemia, sarcoma and solid organ cancers. Doxorubicin is associated with a high rate of transient serum enzyme during therapy and to rare instances of clinically apparent acute liver injury with jaundice that can be severe and even fatal. Epirubicin and idarubicin have similar profiles of activity and adverse events as doxorubicin, but have been less commonly used and their potential for causing liver injury has been less well defined. Valrubicin is instilled directly in the bladder as treatment of refractory urinary bladder cancer, has little systemic distribution, and has not been associated with serum enzyme elevations or clinically apparent liver injury.|Idarubicin is a semisynthetic 4-demethoxy analogue of the antineoplastic anthracycline antibiotic daunorubicin. Idarubicin intercalates into DNA and interferes with the activity of topoisomerase II, thereby inhibiting DNA replication, RNA transcription and protein synthesis. Due to its high lipophilicity, idarubicin penetrates cell membranes more efficiently than other anthracycline antibiotic compounds.|An orally administered anthracycline antineoplastic. The compound has shown activity against BREAST NEOPLASMS; LYMPHOMA; and LEUKEMIA.

Toxicity

Serum aminotransferase elevations occur in up to 40% of patients on doxorubicin therapy, but elevations are generally asymptomatic and transient, resolving even with continuation of therapy. However, instances of acute liver injury with symptoms and jaundice have been reported with doxorubicin and rarely also with epirubicin and idarubicin. In most instances, multiple cancer chemotherapeutic agents were being administered and the anthracite antibiotic was believed to enhance the toxicity of the other agents (such as cyclosphosphamide, methotrexate or mercaptopurine). Combination antineoplastic regimens can cause sinusoidal obstruction syndrome, but the role of doxorubicin, epirubicin and idarubicin in this outcome is often not clear. Valrubicin is administered locally in the bladder (intravesical) and has little systemic absorption and has not been linked to serum enzyme elevations during therapy or to clinically apparent liver injury.

Drug Information

For the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in adults. This includes French-American-British (FAB) classifications M1 through M7.|Drug: Idarubicinhydrochloride

Doxorubicin, epirubicin, idarubicin and valrubicin are structurally related cytotoxic antineoplastic antibiotics used in the therapy of several forms of lymphoma, leukemia, sarcoma and solid organ cancers. Doxorubicin is associated with a high rate of transient serum enzyme during therapy and to rare instances of clinically apparent acute liver injury with jaundice that can be severe and even fatal. Epirubicin and idarubicin have similar profiles of activity and adverse events as doxorubicin, but have been less commonly used and their potential for causing liver injury has been less well defined. Valrubicin is instilled directly in the bladder as treatment of refractory urinary bladder cancer, has little systemic distribution, and has not been associated with serum enzyme elevations or clinically apparent liver injury.

Idarubicin is an antineoplastic in the anthracycline class. General properties of drugs in this class include: interaction with DNA in a variety of different ways including intercalation (squeezing between the base pairs), DNA strand breakage and inhibition with the enzyme topoisomerase II. Most of these compounds have been isolated from natural sources and antibiotics. However, they lack the specificity of the antimicrobial antibiotics and thus produce significant toxicity. The anthracyclines are among the most important antitumor drugs available. Doxorubicin is widely used for the treatment of several solid tumors while daunorubicin and idarubicin are used exclusively for the treatment of leukemia. Idarubicin may also inhibit polymerase activity, affect regulation of gene expression, and produce free radical damage to DNA. Idarubicin possesses an antitumor effect against a wide spectrum of tumors, either grafted or spontaneous. The anthracyclines are cell cycle-nonspecific.

Included in this category are a variety of ANTINEOPLASTIC AGENTS which target the eukaryotic form of topoisomerase II and ANTIBACTERIAL AGENTS which target the prokaryotic form of topoisomerase II. (See all compounds classified as Topoisomerase II Inhibitors.)

The drug is eliminated predominately by biliary and to a lesser extent by renal excretion, mostly in the form of idarubicinol.

Idarubicin has antimitotic and cytotoxic activity through a number of proposed mechanisms of action: Idarubicin forms complexes with DNA by intercalation between base pairs, and it inhibits topoisomerase II activity by stabilizing the DNA-topoisomerase II complex, preventing the religation portion of the ligation-religation reaction that topoisomerase II catalyzes.

Idarubicin Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

Suspend compound ((-)-II) (159mg, 0.29mmo1) and 0.8g4A molecular sieve in a mixture of 12ml dichloromethane and 10ml ether under the protection of -40℃ and argon, add TMSOTf (0.12ml, 0.62mmo1) ). Stir at 0°C for 1 h. Cool to -15°C, add compound (+)-(I) (85mg, 0.23mmol) dissolved in 25ml of dichloromethane, and stir at -15°C for 5h. Under vigorous stirring, the reaction solution was poured into a mixture of 150 ml saturated sodium bicarbonate and 80 ml ethyl acetate. The organic layer was separated, washed with saturated brine (2×50 ml), and dried with anhydrous magnesium sulfate. After filtration, the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo, and the remaining solution was passed through a short silica gel column and eluted with ethyl acetate-benzene (1:4). 170 mg of compound (-)-(Ⅲ) was obtained, and the yield was 99.5%. Compound (-)-(Ⅲ) (189.0 mg, 0.25 mmol) was dissolved in 1.5 ml of dichloromethane, and 2.5 ml of 0.1 mol/L sodium hydroxide solution was added at 0°C under stirring and under argon protection. Stir at 0°C for 30 min. Add glacial acetic acid until the solution becomes bright orange, then add 150ml ethyl acetate and 150ml saturated brine. The organic layer was separated, washed with saturated brine (2×50 ml), and dried with anhydrous magnesium sulfate. After filtration, the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography and eluted with dichloromethane-acetone (9:1). 120 mg of compound (+)-(1V) was obtained, the yield was 83%, the melting point was 151-153°C, [α]D20+190° (C=0.10, dioxane). Compound (+)-(IV) (95.7 mg, 0.17 mmol) was dissolved in 20 ml of 0.1 mol/L sodium hydroxide solution, and stirred at room temperature under argon protection for 20 min. After adjusting to Ph=8 with 5mol/L hydrochloric acid, it was extracted with chloroform until the extract was no longer orange (about 5×70ml). The extracts were combined, washed with 50 ml of water, and dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate. After filtration, the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue is dissolved in a small amount of chloroform and methanol (9:1) mixed solution, 0.25mol/L hydrogen chloride methanol solution is added to Ph=3-5, and then 30ml ether is added. 69.7mg of orange powdered idarubicin hydrochloride can be obtained with a yield of 77%.
