Ifosfamide currently is approved for use in combination with other drugs for germ cell testicular cancer & is widely used to treat pediatric & adult sarcomas. Clinical trials also have shown ifosfamide to be active against carcinomas of the cervix & lung & against lymphomas. It is a common component of high-dose chemotherapy regimens with bone marrow or stem cell rescue; in these regimens, in total doses of 12-14 g/sq m, it may cause severe neurological toxicity, including coma & death. This toxicity is thought to result form a metabolite, chloracetaldehyde. In addition to hemorrhagic cystitis, ifosfamide causes nausea, vomiting, anorexia, leukopenia, nephrotoxicity, & CNS disturbances (especially somnolence & confusion).

The bone marrow depressant effects of ifosfamide may result in an increased incidence of microbial infection, delayed healing, and gingival bleeding. Dental work, whenever possible, should be completed prior to initiation of therapy or deferred until blood counts have returned to normal. Patients should be instructed in proper oral hygiene during treatment, including caution in use of regular toothbrushes, dental floss, and toothpicks.

Also used as a component of various chemotherapeutic regimens for the treatment of cervical cancer, as well as in conjunction with surgery and/or radiation therapy in the treatment of various soft tissue sarcomas. Other indications include treatment of osteosarcoma, bladder cancer, ovarian cancer. small cell lung cancer, and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
Ifosfamide requires activation by microsomal liver enzymes to active metabolites in order to exert its cytotoxic effects. Activation occurs by hydroxylation at the ring carbon atom 4 to form the unstable intermediate 4-hydroxyifosfamide. This metabolite than rapidly degrades to the stable urinary metabolite 4-ketoifosfamide. The stable urinary metabolite, 4-carboxyifosfamide, is formed upon opening of the ring. These urinary metabolites have not been found to be cytotoxic. N, N-bis (2-chloroethyl)-phosphoric acid diamide (ifosphoramide) and acrolein are also found. The major urinary metabolites, dechloroethyl ifosfamide and dechloroethyl cyclophosphamide, are formed upon enzymatic oxidation of the chloroethyl side chains and subsequent dealkylation. It is the alkylated metabolites of ifosfamide that have been shown to interact with DNA. Ifosfamide is cycle-phase nonspecific.
Antineoplastic Agents, Alkylating
A class of drugs that differs from other alkylating agents used clinically in that they are monofunctional and thus unable to cross-link cellular macromolecules. Among their common properties are a requirement for metabolic activation to intermediates with antitumor efficacy and the presence in their chemical structures of N-methyl groups, that after metabolism, can covalently modify cellular DNA. The precise mechanisms by which each of these drugs acts to kill tumor cells are not completely understood. (From AMA, Drug Evaluations Annual, 1994, p2026) (See all compounds classified as Antineoplastic Agents, Alkylating.)

Route of Elimination
Ifosfamide is extensively metabolized in humans and the metabolic pathways appear to be saturated at high doses. After administration of doses of 5 g/m2 of 14C-labeled ifosfamide, from 70% to 86% of the dosed radioactivity was recovered in the urine, with about 61% of the dose excreted as parent compound. At doses of 1.62.4 g/m2 only 12% to 18% of the dose was excreted in the urine as unchanged drug within 72 hours.
Volume of Distribution
Ifosfamide volume of distribution (Vd) approximates the total body water volume, suggesting that distribution takes place with minimal tissue binding. Following intravenous administration of 1.5 g/m2 over 0.5 hour once daily for 5 days to 15 patients with neoplastic disease, the median Vd of ifosfamide was 0.64 L/kg on Day 1 and 0.72 L/kg on Day 5. When given to pediatric patients, the volume of distribution was 211.6 L/m^2.
Clearance
2.40.33 L/h/m^2 [pediatric patients]
Renal excretion & t1/2 are dose & schedule dependent. 60-80% recovered as unchanged drug or metabolite in urine within 72 hr after admin.

The distribution of ifosfamide (IF) and its metabolites 2-dechloroethylifosfamide (2DCE), 3-dechloroethylifosfamide (3DCE), 4-hydroxyifosfamide (4OHIF) and ifosforamide mustard (IFM) between plasma and erythrocytes was examined in vitro and in vivo. In vitro distribution was investigated by incubating blood with various concentrations of IF and its metabolites. In vivo distribution of IF, 2DCE, 3DCE and 4OHIF was determined in 7 patients receiving 9 g/m(2)/72 h intravenous continuous IF infusion. In vitro distribution equilibrium between erythrocytes and plasma was obtained quickly after drug addition. Mean (+/-sem) in vitro and in vivo erythrocyte (e)-plasma (p) partition coefficients (P(e/p)) were 0.75+/-0.01 and 0.81+/-0.03, 0.62+/-0.09 and 0.73+/-0.05, 0.76+/-0.10 and 0.93+/-0.05 and 1.38+/-0.04 and 0.98+/-0.09 for IF, 2DCE, 3DCE and 4OHIF, respectively. These ratios were independent of concentration and unaltered with time. The ratios of the area under the erythrocyte and plasma concentration--time curves (AUC(e/p)) were 0.96+/-0.03, 0.87+/-0.07, 0.98+/-0.06 and 1.34+/-0.39, respectively. A time- and concentration-dependent distribution--equilibrium phenomenon was observed with the relative hydrophilic IFM. It is concluded that IF and metabolites rapidly reach distribution equilibrium between erythrocytes and plasma; the process is slower for IFM. Drug distribution to the erythrocyte fraction ranged from about 38% for 2DCE to 58% for 4OHIF, and was stable over a wide range of clinically relevant concentrations. A strong parallelism in the erythrocyte and plasma concentration profiles was observed for all compounds. Thus, pharmacokinetic assessment using only plasma sampling yields direct and accurate insights into the whole blood kinetics of IF and metabolites and may be used for pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic studies.

Patients: The analysis included 32 patients aged between 1 and 18 years receiving a total of 45 courses of ifosfamide 1.2, 2 or 3 g/m2 in 1 or 3 hours on 1, 2 or 3 days. ... A total of 133 blood samples (median of 3 per patient) were collected. Plasma concentrations of ifosfamide and its dechloroethylated metabolites were determined by gas chromatography. Plasma concentrations of 4-hydroxy-ifosfamide were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography. The models were fitted to the data using a nonlinear mixed effects model as implemented in the NONMEM program. A cross-validation was performed. ... Population values (mean +/- standard error) for the initial clearance and volume of distribution of ifosfamide were estimated at 2.36 +/- 0.33 L/h/m2 and 20.6 +/- 1.6 L/m2 with an interindividual variability of 43 and 32%, respectively. The enzyme induction constant was estimated at 0.0493 +/- 0.0104 L/h2/m2. The ratio of the fraction of ifosfamide metabolised to each metabolite to the volume of distribution of that metabolite, and the elimination rate constant, of 2- and 3-dechloroethyl-ifosfamide and 4-hydroxy-ifosfamide were 0.0976 +/- 0.0556, 0.0328 +/- 0.0102 and 0.0230 +/- 0.0083 m2/L and 3.64 +/- 2.04, 0.445 +/- 0.174 and 7.67 +/- 2.87 h(-1), respectively. Interindividual variability of the first parameter was 23, 34 and 53%, respectively. Cross-validation indicated no bias and minor imprecision (12.5 +/- 5.1%) for 4-hydroxy-ifosfamide only. ... We have developed and validated a model to estimate ifosfamide and metabolite concentrations in a paediatric population by using sparse sampling.

... The population pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of the cytostatic agent ifosfamide and its main metabolites 2- and 3-dechloroethylifosfamide and 4-hydroxyifosfamide were assessed in patients with soft tissue sarcoma. ... Twenty patients received 9 or 12 g/m2 ifosfamide administered as a 72-h continuous intravenous infusion. The population pharmacokinetic model was built in a sequential manner, starting with a covariate-free model and progressing to a covariate model with the aid of generalised additive modelling. ... The addition of the covariates weight, body surface area, albumin, serum creatinine, serum urea, alkaline phosphatase and lactate dehydrogenase improved the prediction errors of the model. Typical pretreatment (mean +/- SEM) initial clearance of ifosfamide was 3.03 +/- 0.18 l/h with a volume of distribution of 44.0 +/- 1.8 l. Autoinduction, dependent on ifosfamide levels, was characterised by an induction half-life of 11.5 +/- 1.0 h with 50% maximum induction at 33.0 +/- 3.6 microM ifosfamide. Significant pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic relationships (P = 0.019) were observed between the exposure to 2- and 3-dechloroethylifosfamide and orientational disorder, a neurotoxic side-effect. No pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic relationships between exposure to 4-hydroxyifosfamide and haematological toxicities could be observed in this population.

Primarily hepatic. Ifosfamide is metabolized through two metabolic pathways: ring oxidation ("activation") to form the active metabolite, 4-hydroxy-ifosfamide and side-chain oxidation to form the inactive metabolites, 3-dechloro-ethylifosfamide or 2-dechloroethylifosfamide with liberation of the toxic metabolite, chloroacetaldehyde. Small quantities (nmol/mL) of ifosfamide mustard and 4-hydroxyifosfamide are detectable in human plasma. Metabolism of ifosfamide is required for the generation of the biologically active species and while metabolism is extensive, it is also quite variable among patients.
Like cyclophosphamide, ifosfamide is activated in the liver by hydroxylation. However, the activation of ifosfamide proceeds more slowly, with greater production of dechlorinated metabolites & chloroacetaldehyde. These differences in metabolism likely account for the higher doses of ifosfamide required for equitoxic effects & the possible difference in antitumor spectrum of the two agents.

Like cyclophosphamide, isophosphamide requires metabolism by microsomal enzymes to act as a cytotoxic agent. It is rapidly metabolized in many species, including rodents and dogs; the urinary metabolites indicate that a series of reactions take place analogous to those in the metabolism of cyclophosphamide. Acrolein is produced during its oxidative degradation, and one product of the reaction is the ring-opened carboxy derivative. Dogs also rapidly metabolize isophosphamide, and the carboxy derivative and 4-keto isophosphamide have been identified in the urine.

The aim of this study was to develop a population pharmacokinetic model that could describe the pharmacokinetics of ifosfamide. 2- and 3-dechloroethylifosfamide and 4-hydroxyifosfamide, and calculate their plasma exposure and urinary excretion. A group of 14 patients with small-cell lung cancer received a 1-h intravenous infusion of 2.0 or 3.0 g/m2 ifosfamide over 1 or 2 days in combination with 175 mg/m2 paclitaxel and carboplatin at AUC 6. The concentration-time profiles of ifosfamide were described by an ifosfamide concentration-dependent development of autoinduction of ifosfamide clearance. Metabolite compartments were linked to the ifosfamide compartment enabling description of the concentration-time profiles of 2- and 3-dechloroethylifosfamide and 4-hydroxyifosfamide. The Bayesian estimates of the pharmacokinetic parameters were used to calculate the systemic exposure to ifosfamide and its metabolites for the four ifosfamide schedules. Fractionation of the dose over 2 days resulted increased metabolite formation, especially of 2-dechloroethylifosfamide, probably due to increased autoinduction. Renal recovery was only minor with 6.6% of the administered dose excreted unchanged and 9.8% as dechloroethylated metabolites. In conclusion, ifosfamide pharmacokinetics were described with an ifosfamide concentration-dependent development of autoinduction and allowed estimation of the population pharmacokinetics of the metabolites of ifosfamide. Fractionation of the dose resulted in increased exposure to 2-dechloroethylifosfamide, probably due to increased autoinduction.

The anticancer drug ifosfamide is a prodrug requiring activation through 4-hydroxyifosfamide to ifosforamide mustard, to exert cytotoxicity. Deactivation of ifosfamide leads to 2- and 3-dechloroethylifosfamide and the release of potentially neurotoxic chloracetaldehyde. The aim of this study was to quantify and to compare the pharmacokinetics of ifosfamide, 2- and 3-dechloroethylifosfamide, 4-hydroxyifosfamide, and ifosforamide mustard in short (1-4 h), medium (24-72 h), and long infusion durations (96-240 h) of ifosfamide. An integrated population pharmacokinetic model was used to describe the autoinducible pharmacokinetics of ifosfamide and its four metabolites in 56 patients. The rate by which autoinduction of the metabolism of ifosfamide developed was found to be significantly dependent on the infusion schedule. The rate was 52% lower with long infusion durations compared with short infusion durations. This difference was, however, comparable with its interindividual variability (22%) and was, therefore, considered to be of minor clinical importance. Autoinduction caused a less than proportional increase in the area under the ifosfamide plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) and more than proportional increase in metabolite exposure with increasing ifosfamide dose. During long infusion durations dose-corrected exposures (AUC/D) were significantly decreased for ifosfamide and increased for 3-dechloroethylifosfamide compared with short infusion durations. No differences in dose-normalized exposure to ifosfamide and metabolites were observed between short and medium infusion durations. This study demonstrates that the duration of ifosfamide infusion influences the exposure to the parent and its metabolite 3-dechloroethylifosfamide. The observed dose and infusion duration dependence should be taken into account when modeling ifosfamide metabolism.

7-15 hours. The elimination half-life increase appeared to be related to the increase in ifosfamide volume of distribution with age.
The elimination half-life associated with doses of 2.5 g/sq m is 6-8 hr, whereas the elimination half-life associated with doses of 3.5-5 g/sq m is 14-16 hr.

The exact mechanism of ifosfamide has not been determined, but appears to be similar to other alkylating agents. Ifosfamide requires biotransformation in the liver by mixed-function oxidases (cytochrome P450 system) before it becomes active. After metabolic activation, active metabolites of ifosfamide alkylate or bind with many intracellular molecular structures, including nucleic acids. The cytotoxic action is primarily through the alkylation of DNA, done by attaching the N-7 position of guanine to its reactive electrophilic groups. The formation of inter and intra strand cross-links in the DNA results in cell death.

Ifosfamide, a structural analog of cyclophosphamide, belongs to the oxazaphosphorine class of antitumor alkylating agents which must be activated by the mixed function oxidase system of the liver. The 4-hydroxy oxazaphosphorines are a reactive species capable of interacting with nucleic acids & cellular materials to cause cell damage & death. The 4-hydroxy metabolite spontaneously liberates acrolein in many sites throughout the body & it is this substance that is responsible for oxazaphosphorine urotoxicity. Both ifosfamide & cyclophosphamide produce cystitis characterized by tissue edema & ulceration followed by sloughing of mucosal epithelial cells, necrosis of smooth muscle fibers & arteries, & culminating in focal hemorrhage. The selective urotoxicity of oxazaphosphorine occurs because the bladder contains a very low concn of thiol cmpds (glutathione, cysteine) which, by virtue of their nucleophilic sulfhydryl groups, are able to react & neutralize many reactive chemicals. Because the metabolic activation of ifosfamide proceeds more slowly than that of cyclophosphamide, doses of ifosfamide are 3-4 times higher than those of cyclophosphamide. This explains the higher incidence of urotoxicity associated with ifosfamide.
