Published: June 1996

Ifosfamide is one of the three most active agents in the treatment of soft tissue sarcomas. Ifosfamide-induced urothelial toxicity has been adequately controlled with the use of hydration and the uroprotective agent mesna. This is a review of pilot and phase I and II studies of ifosfamide as a single agent and randomized trials of combination chemotherapy regimens incorporating ifosfamide in the treatment of soft tissue sarcomas. Issues of schedule and dose of ifosfamide will be addressed as well.
