Asparaginase

Asparaginase is a drug used to kill cancer cells, especially cancerous blood cells. This drug works by breaking down an enzyme called asparagin that is found in all cells. Healthy cells can renew themselves by making more asparagin, while cancer cells cannot do this and die as a result.

  • Difficulty breathing
  • Severe stomach pain, nausea and vomiting
  • Joint pain
