Isofosfamide Indication
For third line chemotherapy of germ cell testicular cancer. It should ordinarily be used in combination with a prophylactic agent for hemorrhagic cystitis, such as mesna.
Isofosfamide Pharmacology
Ifosfamide selectively inhibits the synthesis of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). The guanine and cytosine content correlates with the degree of ifosfamide-induced cross-linking. At high concentrations of the drug, cellular RNA and protein synthesis are also suppressed.

Isofosfamide Toxicity
LD50 (mouse) = 390-1005 mg/kg, LD50 (rat) = 150-190 mg/kg. Side effects include nausea, vomiting and myelosuppression. Toxic effects include central nervous system toxicity (confusion, hallucinations) and urotoxic effects (cystitis, blood in urine).
