General information
Class/mechanism: Depletes plasma asparagine by catalyzing the deamidation of asparagine to
aspartic acid and ammonia, selectively killing leukemic cells which are unable to synthesize asparagine due to a lack of asparagine synthetase.[1][2][3]
Route: IM
Extravasation: n/a
For conciseness and simplicity, HemOnc.org currently will focus on treatment regimens and not list information such as: renal/hepatic dose adjustments, metabolism (including CYP450), excretion, monitoring parameters (although this will be considered for checklists), or manufacturer. Instead, for the most current information, please refer to your preferred pharmacopeias such as Micromedex, Lexicomp, Medscape, UpToDate (courtesy of Lexicomp), or the prescribing information.[1]
