NCIt definition : An injectable ethanol-free formulation containing carmustine with propylene glycol,
with antineoplastic activity. Upon administration, carmustine alkylates and cross-links
DNA during all phases of the cell cycle, resulting in disruption of DNA function,
cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis. The ethanol-free formulation of carmustine may lead
to fewer toxicities than the ethanol-based formulation.;
