Anticancer drugs
Anticancer drugs are used to control the growth of cancerous cells.
Cancer is commonly defined as the uncontrolled growth of cells,
with loss of differentiation and commonly, with metastasis,
spread of the cancer to other tissues and organs.
Cancers are malignant growths. In contrast, benign growths
remain encapsulated and grow within a well-defined
area. Drug therapy is used when the tumor has spread, or may spread,
to all areas of the body.
DescriptionSeveral classes of drugs may be used in cancer treatment,
depending on the nature of the organ involved. For example,
breast cancers are commonly stimulated by estrogens,
and may be treated with drugs that inactivate the sex hormones.
Majority of antineoplastic drugs act by interfering with cell
growth. Since cancerous cells grow more rapidly than other cells,
the drugs target those cells that are in the process of reproducing themselves.
As a result, antineoplastic drugs will commonly affect not only the cancerous cells,
but others cells that commonly reproduce quickly, including hair follicels,
ovaries and testes, and the blood-forming organs.

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.
