Target intelligence / Profile preview

Cyclophosphamide (CTX)

Target
CTX
Molecular classification
Alkylating agent, Nitrogen mustard derivative, Prodrug
01

Overview

Cyclophosphamide is a synthetic antineoplastic alkylating agent used to treat various cancers and autoimmune conditions. It is a prodrug that requires metabolic activation to form phosphoramide mustard, which alkylates DNA, disrupting replication and transcription, leading to cell death. It also possesses immunosuppressive properties.

02

Mechanism of action

DNA alkylation and crosslinking after metabolic activation, leading to cell cycle arrest and apoptosis.
