General information

Class/mechanism: Alkylator, ethylenimine-type, similar to nitrogen mustards. Ethylenimine radicals are released, which alkylates at the N7 position of guanine, resulting in the linkage between the purine and sugar being severed, and subsequent cell damage and death.[1][2]
Route: IV, intravesicular, intracavitary; (off-label: IT)
Extravasation: irritant or neutral, depending on reference
