For remission induction in acute nonlymphocytic leukemia (myelogenous, monocytic, erythroid) of adults and for remission induction in acute lymphocytic leukemia of children and adults. Daunorubicin is indicated in combination with [cytarabine] for the treatment of newly-diagnosed therapy-related acute myeloid leukemia (t-AML) or AML with myelodysplasia-related changes (AML-MRC) in adults and pediatric patients 1 year and older.
Daunorubicin is an anthracycline antibiotic and antineoplastic agent. It acts by inhibiting cellular reproduction through interference with DNA replication although it may contribute to the induction of cell death by increasing oxidative stress through the generation of reactive oxygen species and free radicals. As an antineoplastic agent, daunorubicin carries significant toxicities including cytopenias, hepatotoxicity, and extravasation reactions. Like other anthracyclines, daunorubicin also exhibits cardiotoxicity in proportion with the cumulative dose received over time.

Absorption
Daunorubicin was found to have a tmax of 2 h and a cmax of 24.8 g/mL after a 90 min infusion of the liposomal formulation at a dose of 44 mg/m2.
Route of Elimination
Daunorubicin is eliminated hepatically. 40% of daunorubicin is excreted in the bile while 25% is excreted in an active form (daunorubicin or daunorubicinol) in the urine. In the liposomal formulation, only 9% of active molecules are excreted in the urine.
Volume of Distribution
Daunorubicin has a steady-state volume of distribution of 1.91 L/m2 reported with the liposomal formulation. The average volume of distribution reported for the liposomal formulation is 6.6 L.
Clearance
Daunorubicin has a clearance of 68.4 mL/h/m2 determined using the liposomal formulation.
Note: Liposomal encapsulation can substantially affect a drug's functional properties relative to those of the unencapsulated drug. In addition, different liposomal drug products may vary from one another in the chemical composition and physical form of the liposomes. Such differences can substantially affect the functional properties of liposomal drug products.

Encapsulation of daunorubicin citrate in liposomes substantially alters the pharmacokinetics of the drug relative to conventional iv formulations (ie, nonencapsulated drug) with resultant decreased distribution into the peripheral compartment, increased distribution into Kaposi's lesions, and decreased plasma clearance
American Society of Health System Pharmacists; AHFS Drug Information 2009. Bethesda, MD. (2009)
Daunorubicin hydrochloride is extremely irritating to tissues and, therefore, must be administered iv. Following iv infusion of a single 40-mg/sq m dose of liposomal daunorubicin citrate as a liposomal injection in patients with AIDS-related Kaposi's sarcoma, mean peak plasma daunorubicin (mostly bound to liposomes) concentrations are approximately 18 mug/mL following a 30-60 minute infusion. Peak plasma concentrations of daunorubicin are higher following iv administration of liposomal daunorubicin citrate than those attained following iv administration of conventional (nonencapsulated) daunorubicin hydrochloride.
American Society of Health System Pharmacists; AHFS Drug Information 2009. Bethesda, MD. (2009)
In one study in patients with disseminated malignancies receiving a single 80-mg/sq m iv dose of nonencapsulated daunorubicin, peak plasma concentrations of the drug were 0.4 ug/mL while in patients with solid tumors (including those with Kaposi's sarcoma) who received a single 80-mg/sq m iv dose of liposomal daunorubicin, peak plasma concentrations of daunorubicin were about 44 ug/mL (about 100-fold greater than those receiving a comparable dose of the nonencapsulated drug); area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) was about 36-fold greater than that observed with conventional daunorubicin hydrochloride. Following iv administration of liposomal daunorubicin, peak plasma concentrations and AUCs of daunorubicin generally increase linearly with increasing doses (at doses of 10-80 ug/mL).

Daunorubicin hydrochloride is extensively metabolized in the liver and other tissues, mainly by cytoplasmic aldo-keto reductases, producing daunorubicinol, the major metabolite which has antineoplastic activity. Approximately 40% of the drug in the plasma is present as daunorubicinol within 30 minutes and 60% in 4 hours after a dose of nonencapsulated daunorubicin.
American Society of Health System Pharmacists; AHFS Drug Information 2009. Bethesda, MD. (2009)
Daunorubicinol has been detected only in low concentrations in the plasma following iv administration of daunorubicin citrate liposomal injection. In patients with AIDS-associated Kaposi's sarcoma receiving iv administration of liposomal daunorubicin doses of 40 mg/sq m, the AUC of daunorubicinol represented only 2% of the total daunorubicin AUC. Additional metabolism by reductive cleavage of the glycosidic bond produces aglycones, which have little or no cytotoxic activity and are demethylated and conjugated with sulfate and glucuronide by microsomal enzymes.
American Society of Health System Pharmacists; AHFS Drug Information 2009. Bethesda, MD. (2009)
Metabolites identified in human urine are daunorubicinol, daunorubicinol aglycone, desmethyldeoxydaunorubicinol aglycone, desmethyldeoxyrubicinol aglycone-4-o-sulfate, desmethyloxydaunorubicinol aglycone-4-o-glucuronide, and deoxydaunorubicinol aglycone glucuronide.

Daunorubicin has been determined to have a terminal half-life of 18.5 h (+/- 4.9). Daunorubicinol, the primary active metabolite has been determined to have a terminal half-life of 26.7 h (+/- 12.8). The mean half-life of elimination of liposomal daunorubicin has been reported to be 22.1 h in pharmacokinetic studies and 31.5 h in official FDA labeling.
Following rapid iv administration of conventional daunorubicin hydrochloride injection, total plasma concentrations of daunorubicin and its metabolites decline in a triphasic manner, and plasma concentrations of unchanged daunorubicin decline in a biphasic manner.
American Society of Health System Pharmacists; AHFS Drug Information 2009. Bethesda, MD. (2009)
The plasma half-life of nonencapsulated daunorubicin averages 45 minutes in the initial phase and 18.5 hours in the terminal phase. By 1 hour after administration of nonencapsulated daunorubicin, the predominant form of the drug in plasma is the active metabolite daunorubicinol, which has an average terminal plasma half-life of 26.7 hours.
American Society of Health System Pharmacists; AHFS Drug Information 2009. Bethesda, MD. (2009)
The apparent elimination half-life of DaunoXome (daunorubicin citrate liposome injection) is 4.4 hours, far shorter than that of daunorubicin, and probably represents a distribution half-life.

Daunorubicin has antimitotic and cytotoxic activity through a number of proposed mechanisms of action: Daunorubicin forms complexes with DNA by intercalation between base pairs, and it inhibits topoisomerase II activity by stabilizing the DNA-topoisomerase II complex, preventing the religation portion of the ligation-religation reaction that topoisomerase II catalyzes.
Daunorubicin is an antineoplastic antibiotic. Daunorubicin has antimitotic and cytotoxic activity. Daunorubicin forms a complex with DNA by intercalation between base pairs. By stabilizing the complex between DNA and topoisomerase II, daunorubicin inhibits the activity of this enzyme, resulting in single-strand and double-strand breaks in DNA. Daunorubicin also may inhibit polymerase activity, affect regulation of gene expression, and be involved in free radical damage to DNA. Although daunorubicin is maximally cytotoxic in the S phase, the drug is not cycle-phase specific. Daunorubicin also has antibacterial and immunosuppressive properties.

Anthracyclines are an important reagent in many chemotherapy regimes for treating a wide range of tumors. One of the primary mechanisms of anthracycline action involves DNA damage caused by inhibition of topoisomerase II. Enzymatic detoxification of anthracycline is a major critical factor that determines anthracycline resistance. Natural product, daunorubicin a toxic analogue of anthracycline is reduced to less toxic daunorubicinol by the AKR1B10, enzyme, which is overexpressed in most cases of smoking associate squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and adenocarcinoma. In addition, AKR1B10 was discovered as an enzyme overexpressed in human liver, cervical and endometrial cancer cases in samples from uterine cancer patients. Also, the expression of AKR1B10 was associated with tumor recurrence after surgery and keratinization of squamous cell carcinoma in cervical cancer and estimated to have the potential as a tumor intervention target colorectal cancer cells (HCT-8) and diagnostic marker for non-small-cell lung cancer. This article presents the mechanism of daunorubicin action and a method to improve the effectiveness of daunorubicin by modulating the activity of AKR1B10.

... In the present study using the ATP depleting agents cyanide, azide, or dinitrophenol to inhibit energy dependent transport processes, /investigators/ observed even larger increases in daunorubicin accumulation than were seen with CsA. Similar patterns were seen in a wide range of P-gp negative human cancer cell lines. Also the observed cyanide effect did not correlate with the expression of mRNA for multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP), the only other member of the ABC family of membrane transporters that is known to be capable of effluxing daunorubicin. Thse results suggest that daunorubicin accumulation in many cases of AML is modulated by one or more novel energy-dependent processes that are distinct from P-gp or MRP. /The authors/ speculate that this novel drug transport mechanism(s) may influence the response of AML patients to daunorubicin and other therapeutic agents.
