Procarbazine

Procarbazine is an antineoplastic chemotherapy agent classified as an alkylating agent. It is used in the treatment of Hodgkin's lymphoma and certain types of brain tumors, including gliomas. Procarbazine works by inhibiting the growth of cancer cells through DNA damage, preventing further proliferation of malignant cells. The medication is typically used as part of combination chemotherapy protocols in the treatment of lymphoma and CNS tumors and is administered under the supervision of a healthcare professional during chemotherapy cycles.
