Summary

Rasburicase is a recombinant form of urate-oxidase enzyme used to treat hyperuricemia following chemotherapy for leukemias and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Brand Names
Elitek, Fasturtec
Generic Name
Rasburicase
DrugBank Accession Number
DB00049
Background

Rasburicase is a recombinant urate-oxidase enzyme produced by a genetically modified Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain. The cDNA coding for rasburicase was cloned from a strain of Aspergillus flavus.

Pharmacodynamics

Drugs used to treat lympohoid leukemia, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and acute myelogenous leukemia often lead to the accumulation of toxic plasma levels of purine metabolites (i.e. uric acid). The injection of rasburicase reduces levels of uric acid and mitigates the toxic effects of chemotherapy induced tumor lysis.

Mechanism of action

Rasburicase catalyzes enzymatic oxidation of uric acid into an inactive and soluble metabolite (allantoin).
