Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Palifosfamide, also known as ZIO201, is a synthetic mustard compound with potential antineoplastic activity. An active metabolite of ifosfamide covalently linked to the amino acid lysine for stability, palifosfamide irreversibly alkylates and cross-links DNA through GC base pairs, resulting in irreparable 7-atom inter-strand cross-links; inhibition of DNA replication and cell death follow. Unlike ifosfamide, this agent is not metabolized to acrolein or chloroacetaldehyde, metabolites associated with bladder and CNS toxicities. In addition, because palifosfamide does not require activation by aldehyde dehydrogenase, it may overcome the tumor resistance seen with ifosfamide.

More Info
Palifosfamide (ZIO-201) is currently developed by ZIOPHARM Oncology, Inc. It is  a proprietary stabilized metabolite of ifosfamide. Ifosfamide has been shown to be effective in high doses in treating testicular cancer, sarcoma and lymphoma. Ifosfamide-based treatment generally represents the standard of care for sarcoma; however, it is not approved by the FDA in this indication. Ifosfamide metabolites include acrolein and chloroacetaldehyde, both highly toxic.  Preclinical studies have shown that palifosfamide has activity in leukemia and solid tumor cancers. These studies also indicate that palifosfamide has a better safety profile than ifosfamide, likely because the toxic metabolites of ifosfamide, acrolein and chloroacetaldehyde are not present in palifosfamide. We believe the administration of palifosfamide may avoid many of the toxicities of ifosfamide without compromising the activity of the drug. see ZIOPHARM's website:  http://www.ziopharm.com/clinical_zio201.php.        
Product Data
Biological target:
Palifosfamide, also known as ZIO201, is a synthetic mustard compound with potential antineoplastic activity.
In vitro activity:
The cytotoxic effect of palifosfamide lysine was studied in osteosarcoma (OS), Ewing's sarcoma (ES) and rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) cell lines using the MTT assay. Palifosfamide lysine was cytotoxic against all the cell lines tested with the IC(50) ranging from 0.5 to 1.5 microg/ml except for OS222, which had an IC(50) of 7 microg/ml. Reference: Cancer Chemother Pharmacol. 2009 Sep;64(4):733-40. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19224214/
In vivo activity:
The antitumor activities of stabilized palifosfamide were investigated in vivo. Dose response, route and schedule of administration, and interaction with docetaxel or doxorubicin were investigated in NCr-nu/nu mice bearing established orthotopic mammary MX-1 tumor xenografts. Oral activity was investigated in P388-1 leukemia in CD2F1 mice. Oral and intraperitoneal bioavailabilities were compared in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stabilized palifosfamide administered by optimized regimens suppressed MX-1 tumor growth (P<0.05) by greater than 80% with 17% complete antitumor responses and up to three-fold increase in time to three tumor doublings over control.
