NCIt definition : A synthetic cytotoxic s-triazine derivative similar in structure to alkylating agent
triethylenemelamin with antineoplastic activity. Although the precise mechanism by
which altretamine exerts its cytotoxic effect is unknown, N-demethylation of altretamine
may produce reactive intermediates which covalently bind to DNA, resulting in DNA
damage. (NCI04);
