BNP7787 (disodium 2,2'-dithio-bis-ethane sulfonate) is currently undergoing development as a chemoprotective agent to prevent common and serious cisplatin-induced side effects. In the kidneys, intestine, and liver, BNP7787 is believed to undergo intracellular conversion into 2-mercaptoethane sulfonate (mesna), which can locally

BNP7787 (2',2'-dithio-bis-ethane sulfonate sodium) is a novel protector against cisplatin-induced toxicities. The pharmacokinetics of BNP7787 and its metabolite mesna were investigated in plasma and ascites of a cancer patient. We also evaluated potential pharmacokinetic interactions between BNP7787 and cisplatin. BNP7787

BNP7787 (2',2'-dithio-bis-ethane sulphonate sodium), a water-soluble disulphide, is chemically and mechanistically different from other sulphur-containing chemoprotective agents. Presently, BNP7787 is under investigation for its protective properties with regard to the side-effects of platinum compounds. In this study, we evaluated BNP7787
