Melphalan is an alkylating chemotherapy agent used primarily in the treatment of multiple myeloma and certain types of cancers such as ovarian cancer. It works by interfering with DNA replication, thereby preventing cancer cells from growing and dividing. Here are key points about Melphalan:
Mechanism of Action:
- Melphalan is an alkylating agent that attaches alkyl groups to DNA, causing cross-linking and damage to the DNA strands. This disrupts the ability of cancer cells to replicate and divide, ultimately leading to cell death.
FDA Approval:
- Approved by the U.S. FDA for the treatment of multiple myeloma and ovarian cancer. It is also used as a conditioning regimen before bone marrow or stem cell transplants.
Indications:
- Primarily used in multiple myeloma and ovarian cancer. It is also employed in high doses for preparatory treatment before bone marrow or stem cell transplants in multiple myeloma patients.
Administration:
- Melphalan is available in both oral and intravenous forms. High-dose melphalan is typically administered intravenously, especially in preparation for stem cell transplants.
Side Effects:
- Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, hair loss, and suppression of bone marrow function leading to anemia, leukopenia, and thrombocytopenia. Long-term use increases the risk of secondary cancers, such as leukemia.
Targeted Use:
- While Melphalan is a non-targeted chemotherapy drug, it is specifically useful in cancers that are particularly sensitive to DNA damage, such as multiple myeloma.
Bone Marrow Transplant Preparation:
- High-dose Melphalan is commonly used as part of the conditioning regimen before autologous stem cell transplants to help destroy residual cancer cells and prepare the body for new healthy stem cells.
Resistance:
- Some cancer cells can develop resistance to Melphalan, often due to enhanced DNA repair mechanisms or changes in drug uptake by cancer cells.
Clinical Trials:
- Ongoing studies are exploring new formulations of Melphalan and its use in combination with other therapies to improve outcomes and reduce side effects in multiple myeloma and other cancers.
Long-Term Risks:
- There is a risk of developing secondary malignancies, such as leukemia or myelodysplastic syndromes, especially with long-term use or high doses.
