• Description: Efaproxiral sodium is a radiation sensitizer that inhibits the production of maleate, an inhibitor of growth factor. It also has been shown to increase the proliferation of epidermal cells and stimulate the synthesis of EGF. Clinical studies have shown that efaproxiral sodium can be used as a radiosensitizer in patients with cancer. Efaproxiral sodium is structurally related to sildenafil, which is used for erectile dysfunction. Efaproxiral sodium also has been shown to inhibit tumor growth in cultures by inducing hypoxia-dependent apoptosis.
