NCIt definition : A synthetic analogue of the nitrogen mustard cyclophosphamide with antineoplastic
activity. Ifosfamide alkylates and forms DNA crosslinks, thereby preventing DNA strand
separation and DNA replication. This agent is a prodrug that must be activated through
hydroxylation by hepatic microsomal enzymes. (NCI04);
