Polidocanol is an alkyl polyglycol ether of lauryl alcohol with sclerosing and potential antineoplastic activities. Upon intralesional administration, polidocanol induces endothelial cell injury by disrupting calcium signaling and nitric oxide pathways. Following endothelial damage, platelets aggregate at the site of injury and attach to the venous wall, resulting in a dense network of platelets, cellular debris, and fibrin that occludes the vessel. Inducing endothelial cell damage within melanoma metastases may incite an antitumor response in untreated bystander lesions and inhibit the growth of in transit metastases and other cutaneous lesions.

4 Drug and Medication Information
4.1 Therapeutic Uses

A randomized, open, multicenter study comparing the safety and efficacy of single or repeated endoscopic injection of Beriplast, a fibrin glue, with those of single endoscopic injection of 1% polidocanol (Aethoxysklerol) for the prevention of GI hemorrhage was conducted in 850 patients (ages 21-94 yr) with bleeding gastroduodenal ulcers. Recurrent bleeding rates among patients in whom the rates could be assessed were 58 of 254 in the polidocanol group, 51 of 266 in the fibrin glue single group, and 41 of 270 in the fibrin glue repeated group. The difference between fibrin glue repeated treatment and polidocanol was significant. Treatment failed, making other therapy necessary, in 34 of 261 in the polidocanol group, 34 of 274 in the fibrin glue single group, and 21 of 274 in the fibrin glue repeated group. The 30 day mortality rates were low in all groups. The safety profiles of the 3 treatments were similar.

5.4 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

Absorption

When given intravenously, the maximum blood concentrations were reached in 15 mins.


Route of Elimination

Route of elimination was not indicated.


Volume of Distribution

When given intravenously, the volume of distribution was 35-82L.


Clearance

Sytemic clearance was 0.2-0.4 L/min.


5.5 Metabolism/Metabolites

Metabolism was not measured.


5.6 Biological Half-Life

The half-life is approximately 1.5 h.


5.7 Mechanism of Action

When administered, polidocanol locally damages blood vessel endothelium. Following the endothelial damage, platelets aggregate at the site and attach to the venous wall eventually resulting in a dense network of platelets, cellular debris, and fibrin that occludes the vessel. Eventually the vessel is replaced by connective fibrous tissue.
