A hypoxia-activated prodrug consisting of a 2-nitroimidazole phosphoramidate conjugate with potential antineoplastic activity. The 2-nitroimidazole moiety of hypoxia-activated prodrug TH-302 acts as a hypoxic trigger, releasing the DNA-alkylating dibromo isophosphoramide mustard moiety within hypoxic regions of tumors. Normoxic tissues may be spared due to the hypoxia-specific activity of this agent, potentially reducing systemic toxicity. Check for active clinical trials using this agent. (NCI Thesaurus)
