Drug

D0052 | Etoposide

Molecular Formula C29H32O13
Molecular Weight 588.6
Structure
State solid
Clearance * Total body clearance = 33 - 48 mL/min [IV administration, adults] * Mean renal clearance = 7 - 10 mL/min/m^2
Volume of distribution The disposition of etoposide is a biphasic process with a distribution half-life of 1.5 hours. It does not cross into cerebrospinal fluid well. Volume of distribution, steady state = 18 - 29 L.
Route of elimination Etoposide is cleared by both renal and nonrenal processes, i.e., metabolism and biliary excretion. Glucuronide and/or sulfate conjugates of etoposide are also excreted in human urine. Biliary excretion of unchanged drug and/or metabolites is an important route of etoposide elimination as fecal recovery of radioactivity is 44% of the intravenous dose. 56% of the dose was in the urine, 45% of which was excreted as etoposide.
Protein binding 97% protein bound.
Half life 4-11 hours
Absorption Absorbed well, time to peak plasma concentration is 1-1.5 hrs. Mean bioavailability is 50% (range of 25% - 75%). Cmax and AUC values for orally administered etoposide capsules display intra- and inter-subject variability. There is no evidence of first-pass effect for etoposide.
Trade names Etopophos
Description inhibits DNA synthesis by forming a complex with topoisomerase II and DNA; derivative of podophyllotoxin
