NCIt definition : The bromide form of azoximer, a N-oxidized polyethylene-piperazine derivative and
a heterochain aliphatic polyamine, with potential immunomodulating and immunoadjuvant
activities. Upon administration, azoximer binds to and induces the activation of myeloid
cells, mostly monocytes and neutrophils, and, to a lesser extent, lymphocytes. Azoximer
increases the expansion of immature DC (iDC) and mature DC (mDC) at inflammatory sites,
stimulates expression of several DC co-stimulatory molecules, and induces the proliferation
and recruitment of T-cells to inflammatory or tumor sites. Azoximer also enhances
intracellular hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production.;
