Pharmacological action

Gemcitover - an antitumor agent, antimetabolite.

Gemcitabine is an antimetabolite group of pyrimidine analogues. Suppresses synthesis of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). It shows cyclospecificity, acting on cells in phases S and G1 / S. It is metabolized inside the cell under the action of nucleoside kinases with the formation of active diphosphate and triphosphate nucleosides. Diphosphate nucleosides inhibit ribonucleotide reductase, which is the only enzyme that catalyzes the formation of deoxynucleoside triphosphates necessary for DNA synthesis. Triphosphate nucleosides actively compete with deoxycytidine triphosphate for incorporation into DNA and RNA molecules. After the intracellular metabolites of gemcitabine are inserted into the DNA chain, another additional nucleotide is added to its growing strands, which leads to complete inhibition of further DNA synthesis and programmed cell lysis, known as apoptosis.

Absolute granulocyte count (in 1 μl) Platelet count (in 1 μl)% of the previous dose

> 1000and> 100000100

500- 1000 or 50000-10000075

<500 or <50000 Postpone the administration of

To detect non-hematologic toxicity, regular examination of the patient and monitoring of liver and kidney function are necessary. Depending on the degree of toxicity, the dose can be reduced stepwise during each cycle or with the start of a new cycle.

Special patient groups

Elderly patients: There is no evidence to suggest that elderly patients need to adjust the dose, although gemcitabine clearance and elimination half-life vary with age.

Patients with impaired liver and kidney function: gemcitabine should be used with caution in patients with hepatic impairment or impaired renal function, since there are no sufficient data on the use of the drug in this category of patients. Mild or moderate severity of renal failure (creatinine clearance from 30 ml / min to 80 ml / min) does not significantly affect the pharmacokinetics of gemcitabine.

Children: The use of gemcitabine in children has not been studied.

Side effects

From the respiratory system: rarely - bronchospasm, shortness of breath. From the side of the central nervous system and peripheral nervous system: rarely - drowsiness, weakness, paresthesia. From the hemopoietic system: leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, anemia. Dermatological reactions: skin rash, itching, alopecia, stomatitis rarely - peeling, vesicular rash, eczema. On the part of laboratory parameters: a transient increase in the activity of hepatic transaminases, alkaline phosphatase, an increase in the concentration of bilirubin in the plasma. On the part of the cardiovascular system: rarely - arterial hypotension, pulmonary edema in isolated cases - myocardial infarction, arrhythmia. From the digestive system: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea rarely - constipation. From the urinary system: proteinuria, hematuria rarely - peripheral edema in isolated cases - renal failure. Other: flu-like syndrome.

Drug Interaction

Gemcitover has a radiosensitizing effect, therefore, when using the drug on the background of radiation therapy, one can expect an increase in radiation reactions. Reduces the production of antibodies and enhances side effects with the simultaneous use of inactivated or live viral vaccines (the interval between the use of drugs should be from 3 to 12 months).

Immunosuppressants (azathioprine, chlorambucil, glucocorticosteroids, cyclophosphamide, cyclosporin, mercaptopurine) increase the risk of infection.

Overdose

Symptoms: myelosuppression, paresthesia, severe skin rash.

Treatment: There is no specific antidote. In case of suspected overdose, the patient should be under constant medical control, including the calculation of the blood formula, if necessary, symptomatic treatment.
