Description
Cisplatin, also known as cisplatinum or cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) (CDDP), is a platinum-based chemotherapy drug with the formula Cl2H4N2Pt and an average molecular weight of 298.04 g/mol. It is a solid at room temperature and is exogenous in origin. Cisplatin belongs to the transition metal chlorides, a subclass of transition metal salts within the inorganic compounds. It is used to treat various types of cancers, including sarcomas, lymphomas, germ cell tumors, and some carcinomas, such as ovarian cancer and small cell lung cancer. It was the first member of its class, which also includes oxaliplatin and carboplatin. The compound is found in or released from three recorded sources: antineoplastic agents within healthcare, pharmaceuticals and veterinary products, and electrical and electronic equipment, specifically antennas and amplifiers. The recorded route of exposure is intravenous. Cisplatin interacts with four recorded protein targets: copper transport protein ATOX1, serotransferrin (TF), alpha-2-macroglobulin (), and it acts as a binder/blocker of DNA-3-methyladenine glycosylase (MPG).

Toxicity Profile
Mechanism of ToxicityAlkylating agents work by three different mechanisms: 1) attachment of alkyl groups to DNA bases, resulting in the DNA being fragmented by repair enzymes in their attempts to replace the alkylated bases, preventing DNA synthesis and RNA transcription from the affected DNA, 2) DNA damage via the formation of cross-links (bonds between atoms in the DNA) which prevents DNA from being separated for synthesis or transcription, and 3) the induction of mispairing of the nucleotides leading to mutations.
Carcinogenicity (IARC Classification)2A, probably carcinogenic to humans. (30)
Minimum Risk LevelNot Available
SymptomsNot Available
TreatmentEYES: irrigate opened eyes for several minutes under running water. INGESTION: do not induce vomiting. Rinse mouth with water (never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person). Seek immediate medical advice. SKIN: should be treated immediately by rinsing the affected parts in cold running water for at least 15 minutes, followed by thorough washing with soap and water. If necessary, the person should shower and change contaminated clothing and shoes, and then must seek medical attention. INHALATION: supply fresh air. If required provide artificial respiration.
