Product Overview
About ЕПІРУБІЦИН - ВІСТА
ЕПІРУБІЦИН - ВІСТА is a medication containing the active ingredient Epirubicin, a chemotherapeutic agent used in the treatment of various types of cancer. It belongs to the anthracycline class of drugs, which work by intercalating DNA strands and inhibiting the synthesis of nucleic acids, ultimately leading to cell death.
Key Benefits & Uses
- Treatment of breast cancer, particularly in patients with metastatic disease or those who have not responded to other therapies.
- Treatment of ovarian cancer, including advanced and recurrent cases.
- Treatment of other cancers, such as lung, stomach, and bladder cancer, under the guidance of a healthcare professional.
Active Ingredient & Action
Epirubicin works by binding to DNA and inhibiting the enzyme topoisomerase II, which is essential for DNA replication and cell division. This leads to the formation of free radicals, which damage the DNA and ultimately cause cell death. Epirubicin is also known to induce apoptosis, or programmed cell death, in cancer cells.
