PHARMACOLOGY
The mechanism of action of epirubicin hydrochloride has not been fully
elucidated
but is probably related to its ability to bind DNA. Cell culture
studies have shown cell
penetration, localisation in the nucleus and inhibition of nucleic
acid synthesis and
mitosis. Epirubicin hydrochloride has proved to be active on the
following
experimental tumours: L 1210 ascites and P388 leukaemias, sarcoma SA
180 (solid
and ascitic forms), melanoma B 16, mammary carcinoma, Lewis lung
carcinoma and
colon carcinoma 38.

The specificity of epirubicin hydrochloride toxicity appears to be
related primarily to
proliferative activity of normal tissue. Thus, bone marrow,
gastrointestinal tract,
lymphoid organs and the gonads are the main normal tissues damaged.
Degenerative
or functional alterations in liver and kidneys were also seen in
animals dosed with
epirubicin hydrochloride.
Like most other anti-tumour and immunosuppressant agents, epirubicin
hydrochloride, under experimental conditions, has mutagenic properties
and is
carcinoge
