MedKoo CAT#: 202940

CAS#: 27314-97-2

Description: Trapazamine, also known as SR-4233,DNA-damaging drug potentially for the treatment of cervical carcinoma, head and neck cancer. Tirapazamine is activated to its toxic form preferentially in the hypoxic areas of solid tumors. Cells in these regions are resistant to killing by radiotherapy and most anticancer drugs. Thus the combination of tirapazamine with conventional anticancer treatments is particularly effective.
