CAS 3778-73-2: Ifosfamide
Description:Ifosfamide is a synthetic alkylating agent primarily used in chemotherapy for treating various cancers, including testicular cancer, sarcomas, and lymphomas. It is a prodrug, meaning it requires metabolic activation in the liver to exert its therapeutic effects. Ifosfamide is structurally related to cyclophosphamide and functions by forming DNA cross-links, which inhibit DNA replication and transcription, ultimately leading to cell death. The compound is typically administered intravenously and is known for its potential side effects, which can include myelosuppression, neurotoxicity, and bladder toxicity, necessitating the use of protective agents like mesna to mitigate these risks. Ifosfamide is characterized by its molecular formula, which includes carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen atoms, and it has a relatively high solubility in water. Its pharmacokinetics involve rapid distribution and metabolism, with a half-life that can vary based on individual patient factors. Overall, Ifosfamide remains an important agent in oncological therapy, despite its associated toxicities.
