Overview

CPX-351 (Vyxeos) is a liposomal encapsulation of the antineoplastic agents cytarabine and daunorubicin in a fixed 5:1 molar ratio. This specific ratio was identified in vitro to maximize synergistic killing of leukemia cells. The liposomal delivery system optimizes the pharmacokinetics of the two drugs, providing a prolonged plasma half-life and preferential accumulation and uptake within the bone marrow, thereby increasing exposure to malignant progenitor cells while reducing systemic toxicity. It was originally developed by Celator Pharmaceuticals (acquired by Jazz Pharmaceuticals) and is FDA-approved for the treatment of adults with newly-diagnosed therapy-related acute myeloid leukemia (t-AML) or AML with myelodysplasia-related changes (AML-MRC).
