Gemcitabine Hydrochloride is a powerful antimetabolite chemotherapy drug used to treat various cancers, including pancreatic, breast, ovarian, and non-small cell lung cancer, working by mimicking natural DNA building blocks to stop cancer cells from growing and dividing.
Gemcitabine Hydrochloride is a chemotherapy drug that kills cancer cells by blocking DNA synthesis, acting as a deoxycytidine analog. Its active forms, diphosphate (dFdCDP) and triphosphate (dFdCTP), inhibit DNA polymerase, get incorporated into DNA to cause chain termination, and dFdCDP inhibits ribonucleotide reductase, reducing essential building blocks (deoxynucleotides) for DNA, leading to cell death (apoptosis).
