UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008927	Mitobronitol	Brominated analog of MANNITOL which is an antineoplastic agent appearing to act as an alkylating agent.	Dibromomannitol,Myelobromol,NSC-94,100,NSC-94100,NSC 94,100,NSC 94100,NSC94,100,NSC94100
D008936	Mitolactol	Alkylating antineoplastic toxic to bone marrow; used in breast cancer, also in combination with other drugs.	Dibromodulcitol,NSC-104800,NSC 104800,NSC104800
D009607	Nitrosourea Compounds	A class of compounds in which the core molecule is R-NO, where R is UREA.	Compounds, Nitrosourea
D011929	Razoxane	An antimitotic agent with immunosuppressive properties.	ICRF-159,ICRF-186,NSC-129943,Razoxane Mesylate, (R)-Isomer,Razoxane, (R)-Isomer,Razoxin,ICRF 159,ICRF 186,ICRF159,ICRF186,NSC 129943,NSC129943
D002945	Cisplatin	An inorganic and water-soluble platinum complex. After undergoing hydrolysis, it reacts with DNA to produce both intra and interstrand crosslinks. These crosslinks appear to impair replication and transcription of DNA. The cytotoxicity of cisplatin correlates with cellular arrest in the G2 phase of the cell cycle.	Platinum Diamminodichloride,cis-Diamminedichloroplatinum(II),cis-Dichlorodiammineplatinum(II),Biocisplatinum,Dichlorodiammineplatinum,NSC-119875,Platidiam,Platino,Platinol,cis-Diamminedichloroplatinum,cis-Platinum,Diamminodichloride, Platinum,cis Diamminedichloroplatinum,cis Platinum
D005047	Etoposide	A semisynthetic derivative of PODOPHYLLOTOXIN that exhibits antitumor activity. Etoposide inhibits DNA synthesis by forming a complex with topoisomerase II and DNA. This complex induces breaks in double stranded DNA and prevents repair by topoisomerase II binding. Accumulated breaks in DNA prevent entry into the mitotic phase of cell division, and lead to cell death. Etoposide acts primarily in the G2 and S phases of the cell cycle.	Demethyl Epipodophyllotoxin Ethylidine Glucoside,Celltop,Eposide,Eposin,Eto-GRY,Etomedac,Etopos,Etoposide Pierre Fabre,Etoposide Teva,Etoposide, (5S)-Isomer,Etoposide, (5a alpha)-Isomer,Etoposide, (5a alpha,9 alpha)-Isomer,Etoposide, alpha-D-Glucopyranosyl Isomer,Etoposido Ferrer Farma,Exitop,Lastet,NSC-141540,Onkoposid,Riboposid,Toposar,VP 16-213,VP-16,Vepesid,Vépéside-Sandoz,Eto GRY,Etoposide, alpha D Glucopyranosyl Isomer,NSC 141540,NSC141540,Teva, Etoposide,VP 16,VP 16 213,VP 16213,VP16,Vépéside Sandoz,alpha-D-Glucopyranosyl Isomer Etoposide
D006585	Altretamine	A hexamethyl-2,4,6-triamine derivative of 1,3,5-triazine.	Hemel,Hexamethylmelamine,Hexalen,Hexastat,Hexinawas
D006801	Humans	Members of the species Homo sapiens.	Homo sapiens,Man (Taxonomy),Human,Man, Modern,Modern Man
D000477	Alkylating Agents	Highly reactive chemicals that introduce alkyl radicals into biologically active molecules and thereby prevent their proper functioning. Many are used as antineoplastic agents, but most are very toxic, with carcinogenic, mutagenic, teratogenic, and immunosuppressant actions. They have also been used as components in poison gases.	Alkylating Agent,Alkylator,Alkylators,Agent, Alkylating,Agents, Alkylating
D000903	Antibiotics, Antineoplastic	Chemical substances, produced by microorganisms, inhibiting or preventing the proliferation of neoplasms.	Antineoplastic Antibiotics,Cytotoxic Antibiotics,Antibiotics, Cytotoxic
