Cancrinase 3750IU Injection is a chemotherapy drug containing the active constituent Pegaspargase. It is used to treat a type of blood cancer called Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL).  This is a white blood cell cancer in which the immature white cells start growing out of control, thus preventing the production of functional blood cells. Combined with other chemotherapy drugs, this medication can help increase the chances of remission and long-term survival for people with ALL. It is particularly effective in treating children with ALL, who have a higher remission rate and overall survival when included in their treatment plan. Cancrinase 3750IU Injection is typically used with other chemotherapy agents to treat ALL, particularly in patients who have not responded to other treatments or who have relapsed after initial treatment. Glucose intolerance can occur with the administration of Cancrinase 3750IU Injection. Contact your doctor if you experience severe headaches, abdominal pain, excessive thirst, or serious allergic reactions while taking this medicine. Patients with previous kidney and pancreatic disease should talk to their healthcare provider before taking this medication.

Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient

PEGASPARGASE

Uses

• Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
• Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma

Benefits

Cancrinase 3750IU Injection is an enzyme that breaks down the amino acid asparagine in the body. Cancer cells require asparagine to grow and divide and cannot produce their asparagine. By breaking down asparagine in the body, this medication can effectively "starve" cancer cells of this essential nutrient, slowing their growth and promoting cancer cell death. However, normal cells in the body can produce their asparagine and are not as affected by the enzyme as cancer cells. Therefore, this medicine selectively targets cancer cells while sparing healthy cells in the body to some extent.
