NCIt definition : A 4'-epi-isomer of the anthracycline antineoplastic antibiotic doxorubicin. Epirubicin
intercalates into DNA and inhibits topoisomerase II, thereby inhibiting DNA replication
and ultimately, interfering with RNA and protein synthesis. This agent also produces
toxic free-radical intermediates and interacts with cell membrane lipids causing lipid
peroxidation.;
Alternative definition : NCI-GLOSS: A drug used together with other drugs to treat early breast cancer that
