A series of new prodrugs: [bis(2-chloroethylamino)phosphoryloxy]methyl acetate, [bis(2-chloroethylamino)phosphoryloxy]methyl pivalate and [bis(2-chloroethylamino)phosphoryloxy]methyl benzoate, was obtained in the reaction of isophosphoramide mustard (iPAM) with the corresponding acyloxymethyl halides. The cytotoxic activity of these new compounds is also shown. All compounds were highly active in the inhibition of cancer cell proliferation against the human lung (A594), prostate (PC-3) and breast (MCF-7) cancer cell lines.

Introduction: Osteosarcoma (OSA) is an aggressive form of bone cancer in both dogs and humans. The treatment options for metastatic (stage III) OSA are currently limited and the prognosis is poor. Zoledronate, a second generation amino-bisphosphonate, is commonly used for palliation of cancer induced bone pain.

Background: Sunitinib (SUN)-induced hypoxia within the tumor could promote the activation of the prodrug evofosfamide (EVO), locally releasing the cytotoxic DNA alkylator bromo-isophosphoramide mustard. SUNEVO, a phase II, open-label, single-arm trial, investigated the potential synergy of SUN plus EVO in advanced progressive pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (panNETs).
Methods: Systemic treatment-naïve patients with advanced or metastatic, unresectable, grade 1/2 panNETs with a Ki67 ≤20%, received EVO 340 mg/m on days 8, 15, and 22 every 4 weeks and sunitinib 37.
Evofosfamide (Evo or TH302) is a hypoxia-activated prodrug which is reduced leading to the release of alkylating agent bromo-isophosphoramide mustard, which has shown safety and signals of efficacy in a prior phase 1 study in recurrent glioblastoma. We performed a dual center single-arm Phase II study to expand on the safety and efficacy of Evo plus bevacizumab in bevacizumab refractory glioblastoma. 33 patients with bevacizumab refractory GBM received Evo 670 mg/m in combination with Bevacizumab 10 mg/kg IV every 2 weeks.

Purpose: Hypoxia is widely known as one of the mechanisms of chemoresistance and as an environmental condition which triggers invasion and metastasis of cancer. Evofosfamide is a hypoxia-activated prodrug of the cytotoxin bromo-isophosphoramide mustard conjugated with 2-nitroimidazole. Biliary tract cancer (BTC) is known to contain large hypoxic area.

Background: Oxazaphosphorines (cyclophosphamide (CPA), ifosfamide (IFO)) are major alkylating agents of polychemotherapy protocols but limiting their toxicity and increasing their efficacy could be of major interest. Oxazaphosphorines are prodrugs that require an activation by cytochrome P450 (CYP). CPA is mainly metabolized (>80%) to phosphoramide mustard while only 10%-50% of IFO is transformed in the alkylating entity, isophosphoramide mustard and 50%-90% of IFO release chloroacetaldehyde, a nephrotoxic and neurotoxic metabolite.
