What is Palifosfamide?

Palifosfamide is a synthetic mustard compound and stabilized active metabolite of ifosfamide that irreversibly alkylates and crosslinks DNA through GC base pairs, causing interstrand crosslinks and inhibiting DNA replication. It is studied in advanced sarcoma, soft tissue sarcoma, small cell lung cancer, and metastatic breast cancer.
