De Minimis - 2811 / 6.1

Thio-TEPA is an alkylating agent with anticancer activity (IC50 = 1.5 μM against P388 murine leukemia cells).{37276} It alkylates DNA and inhibits thymidine incorporation (IC50 = 2 μM) inducing irreversible DNA damage. Thio-TEPA crosslinks guanine nucleotides and induces cell cycle arrest via the formation of interstrand crosslinks in L1210 and MCF-7 cancer cells in vitro.{37277} In vivo, thio-TEPA reduces the number of pulmonary metastases in mice following subcutaneous injection of melanoma cells.{37278} It also decreases the number of postoperative lung metastases when administered at a dose of 10 mg/kg after surgical removal of an S-91 melanoma tumor established via intramuscular injection in mice.
