NCIt definition : An iron-chelating agent that binds free iron in a stable complex, preventing it from
engaging in chemical reactions. Deferoxamine chelates iron from intra-lysosomal ferritin
and siderin forming ferrioxamine, a water-soluble chelate excreted by the kidneys
and in the feces via the bile. This agent does not readily bind iron from transferrin,
hemoglobin, myoglobin or cytochrome. (NCI04);
Alternative definition : NCI-GLOSS: An iron-chelating agent that removes iron from tumors by inhibiting DNA
synthesis and causing cancer cell death. It is used in conjunction with other anticancer
agents in pediatric neuroblastoma therapy.;
