产品描述

Caracemide (NSC-253272) inhibits the enzyme ribonucleotide reductase of Escherichia coli. Caracemide is a novel anticancer agent derived from a hydroxamic acid and has demonstrated to produce severe central nervous system (CNS) toxicity[1][2].

Caracemide inactivates R1 by covalent modification at the substrate-binding site and has a toxic metabolite, methylisocyanate (MIC), in vivo[1][2].

The mercapturic acid derivative AMCC was identified in urine rats following administration to rats of a single i.p. dose (6.6 mg/kg) of caracemide (NSC-253272)[1]. .

Caracemide, a site-specific irreversible inhibitor of protein R1 of Escherichia coli ribonucleotide reductase

J Biol Chem 1992 Jun 25;267(18):12627-31.PMID:1618768doi

The anticancer drug Caracemide, N-acetyl-N,O- di(methylcarbamoyl)hydroxylamine, and one of its degradation products, N-acetyl-O-methylcarbamoyl-hydroxylamine, were found to inhibit the enzyme ribonucleotide reductase of Escherichia coli by specific interaction with its larger component protein R1. No effect on the smaller protein R2 was observed. The effect of the degradation product was about 30 times lower than that of Caracemide itself. The Caracemide inactivation of R1 is irreversible, with an apparent second-order rate constant of 150 M-1 s-1. The R1R2 holoenzyme was approximately 30 times more sensitive to Caracemide inactivation than the isolated R1 protein. The ribonucleotide reductase substrates were potent competitors of the Caracemide inhibition, with a Kdiss for GDP binding to R1 of 80 microM. The reducing agent dithiothreitol was also found to be a potent competitor of Caracemide inactivation. These results indicate that Caracemide inactivates R1 by covalent modification at the substrate-binding site. By analogy with the known interaction between Caracemide and acetylcholinesterase or choline acetyltransferase, we propose that the modification of R1 occurs at an activated cysteine or serine residue in the active site of the enzyme.

Biochemical pharmacology of N-acetyl-N-(methylcarbamoyloxy)-N'-methylurea (Caracemide; NSC-253272)

Biochem Pharmacol 1986 Aug 15;35(16):2781-7.PMID:3527174DOI:10.1016/0006-2952(86)90190-5.

Preclinical pharmacologic studies of Caracemide [N-acetyl-N-(methylcarbamoyloxy)-N'-methylurea; CAR] have demonstrated a marked instability of this compound in the presence of either phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) or human plasma. Using [1-14C-acetyl]CAR and [3H-methylcarbamoyloxy]CAR, three CAR degradation products were identified: product A, N-(methylcarbamoyloxy)acetamide; product B: N-(methylcarbamoyloxy)-N'-methylurea; and product C: N-hydroxy-N'-methylurea. CAR degradation in human plasma was demonstrated by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to occur in a time- and temperature-dependent manner. A 30-min incubation (37 degrees) of CAR (10(-4) M) with human plasma resulted in degradation of more than 55% of parent compound; at 1 hr, more than 75% of original CAR was degraded. Incubation of [1-14C-acetyl]CAR with rat brain homogenate resulted in the formation of 14CO2. This reaction was partially inhibited by coincubation with physostigmine (10(-3) M). CAR inhibited acetylcholinesterase activity in neuroblastoma cells with an IC50 of 14 microM. In mechanism of action studies, CAR was found to inhibit ribonucleotide reductase activity but only at nine times the IC50 of hydroxyurea. In contrast to hydroxyurea, CAR was found to be non-cell-cycle phase-specific and non-cross-resistant with two CHO cell lines resistant to hydroxyurea. These data demonstrate the instability of CAR; moreover, they suggest that its mechanism of cytotoxicity is distinctly different from that of hydroxyurea and that the neurotoxicity associated with CAR administration may be caused in part by inhibition of acetylcholinesterase activity.

Studies on the metabolic fate of Caracemide, an experimental antitumor agent, in the rat. Evidence for the release of methyl isocyanate in vivo

Chem Res Toxicol 1993 May-Jun;6(3):335-40.PMID:8318655DOI:10.1021/tx00033a013.

Following administration to rats of a single ip dose (6.6 mg kg-1) of the investigational antitumor agent Caracemide (N-acetyl-N,O-bis[methylcarbamoyl]hydroxylamine), the mercapturic acid derivative N-acetyl-S-(N-methylcarbamoyl)cysteine (AMCC) was identified in urine by thermospray LC-MS. Quantification of this conjugate was carried out by stable isotope dilution thermospray LC-MS, which indicated that the fraction of the Caracemide dose recovered as AMCC in 24-h urine collections was 54.0 +/- 5.5% (n = 4). Since AMCC is known to represent a major urinary metabolite of methyl isocyanate (MIC) in the rat, the results of this study support the contention that Caracemide yields MIC as a toxic intermediate in vivo. Furthermore, with the aid of a specifically deuterium-labeled analog of Caracemide ([carbamoyloxy-C2H3]Caracemide), it was shown that the methylcarbamoyl group of AMCC derived from both the O-methylcarbamoyl (72%) and N-methylcarbamoyl (28%) side chains of the drug. In view of these findings, it is concluded that Caracemide acts as a latent form of MIC in vivo and that this reactive isocyanate (or labile S-linked conjugates thereof) may contribute to the antitumor properties and/or adverse side-effects of Caracemide.

A phase II trial of amonafide, Caracemide, and homoharringtonine in the treatment of patients with advanced renal cell cancer

Invest New Drugs 1996;14(4):409-13.PMID:9157078DOI:10.1007/BF00180819.

Forty-eight previously untreated, ambulatory patients with advanced or unresectable renal carcinoma were treated with either amonafide (17 patients), Caracemide (17 patients), or homoharringtonine (14 patients). No objective responses were observed in any of the treatment cohorts. Amonafide and Caracemide were well tolerated with no unexpected toxicities. One patient each died of pulmonary thromboembolism and sepsis with severe metabolic acidosis on the homoharringtonine arm. An additional 4 patients experienced grade 4 complications including myelosuppression, neurologic dysfunction, and respiratory failure. These severe and unexpected complications caused early termination of accrual to the homoharringtonine arm of the study. These agents have no activity in the treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma.

Release of methyl isocyanate from the antitumor agent Caracemide (NSC-253272)

Invest New Drugs 1987;5(3):267-71.PMID:3667162DOI:10.1007/BF00175297.

In recent phase 1 clinical trials, Caracemide [N-acetyl-N-(methylcarbamoyloxy)-N-methylurea; NSC-253272] has demonstrated a marked potential to produce severe central nervous system (CNS) toxicity. Recent in vitro studies of this antitumor agent have presented indirect evidence indicating that methyl isocyanate is a likely metabolite which results from incubation of Caracemide with either phosphate buffer or human plasma. This report presents evidence that methyl isocyanate is formed from Caracemide in a concentration- and time-dependent manner. These data implicate the caracemide-mediated formation of methyl isocyanate as at least a plausible explanation for the CNS toxicity exhibited by this drug.
