According to FutureWise analysis the market for Capecitabine is expected to register a CAGR of 5.80% from 2024-2032.
Capecitabine is a chemotherapy drug that can be used to treat colorectal, breast, and stomach cancers. Capecitabine, a prodrug for fluorouracil has been created to treat tumor-selective fluoropyrimidine carbohydrates in tumor cells. Capecitabine can be taken orally daily to mimic continuous fluorouracil administration. The most common side effects are nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and mouth ulcers. It is part of a class of medications known as antifolates. Capecitabine is used for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer. Capecitabine can also be used with chemotherapy drugs to treat early-stage breast carcinoma. Capecitabine can be administered before or after surgery (neoadjuvant treatment) to reduce the chance of cancer returning. Capecitabine, a prodrug, is selectively tumor-activated by fluorouracil (cytotoxic moiety) by thymidine phosphorylase. This enzyme is found in higher levels in tumors than in normal tissues and plasma.Fluorouracil is further metabolized to two active metabolites, 5-fluoro-2'-deoxyuridine 5'-monophosphate (FdUMP) and 5-fluorouridine triphosphate (FUTP), within normal and tumor cells. Two mechanisms are involved in cell injury caused by these metabolites. To form the covalently bound ternary complex, FdUMP and N5-10-methylenetetrahydrofolate bind to thymidylate synthase (TS). This binding prevents the formation of thymidylate 2'-deaxyuridylate. Thymidylate, which is the necessary precursor to thymidine Triphosphate (DNA synthesis), can be inhibited by this binding. Secondly, nuclear transcriptal enzymes may mistakenly include FUTP instead of uridine triphosphate. This metabolic error can cause problems in RNA processing or protein synthesis by producing fraudulent RNA. Many hospitals offer a free information session on chemotherapy before you start your treatment. A nurse will discuss how, when and what side effects you can expect from your chemotherapy.
A nurse will explain how to manage side effects and give blood tests. Some people may also need an ECG (electrocardiogram), which is a simple test that measures your heart rhythm. Every person who is starting capecitabine should have a blood test to determine if there are any levels of DPD. To determine the right dose of chemotherapy, your height and weight will be measured. To make it easy for you to contact the right person if you have questions or concerns, you will be provided with numbers. Capecitabine comes in two strengths: 150mg and 500mg. To ensure you are getting the correct amount of Capecitabine each day, you will be instructed how many tablets to take. Capecitabine is used for colorectal cancers that have spread to other areas of the body. It can be administered before or after surgery (neoadjuvant treatment) along with a platinum-based chemotherapy drug called oxaliplatin. This is followed by another type of chemo called Irinotecan Hydrochloride. Capecitabine can be used to treat stomach cancers that have spread to other areas of the body. It can be administered before or after surgery (neoadjuvant treatment). To treat stomach cancers that are not surgically removed, Capecitabine can be used with fluorouracil and cisplatin.
