Overview

CPX-351 (Vyxeos) is a liposomal formulation containing a fixed 5:1 molar ratio of cytarabine and daunorubicin. It is designed to optimize the synergistic delivery of these two cytotoxic agents to leukemia cells while minimizing exposure to healthy tissues. Cytarabine is a nucleoside analog that inhibits DNA synthesis by competing with cytidine for incorporation into DNA and inhibiting DNA polymerase. Daunorubicin is an anthracycline that intercalates between DNA base pairs and inhibits topoisomerase II, leading to DNA strand breaks. Developed by Jazz Pharmaceuticals (following the acquisition of Celator Pharmaceuticals), CPX-351 is approved for the treatment of adults with newly diagnosed therapy-related acute myeloid leukemia (t-AML) or AML with myelodysplasia-related changes (AML-MRC).
