Please note, this OEL/ADE monograph also applies to Exatecan mesylate anhydrous (CAS RN 169869-90-3), and Exatecan mesylate (CAS RN 197720-53-9). Exatecan, also known as DX 8951, is semisynthetic, water-soluble camptothecin derivative and topoisomerase I (TOP-1) inhibitor with antineoplastic activity. DE-310, a unique polymer prodrug of exatecan, which was developed to achieve protracted systemic exposure to the active drug after a single dose, is also undergoing early clinical development. Exatecan has been used intravenously (IV) in clinical trials studying the treatment of sarcoma, leukemia, lymphoma, lung cancer, pancreatic cancer, and liver cancer among others. However, the development of exatecan as a single agent ceased due to dose-limiting side effects and the absence of therapeutic benefits in combination with gemcitabine compared with gemcitabine alone in clinical testing. Exatecan is being reevaluated in the context of tumor-targeted drug delivery approaches as TOP-1-based antibody-drug conjugates (ADC), being investigated as cytotoxic payload itself, or as its derivative deruxtecan.
