Enloplatin
Enloplatin is a water-soluble cancer medication. It is a platinum-based antineoplastic investigated for treatment of platinum-refractory ovarian cancer, in which it was demonstrated to have minimal activity.[3] This cancer is suspected to be at least partially cross-resistant with another third-generation platinum analog, zeniplatin, which also shows minimal antitumor activity in this type of cancer. It was found to be cross-resistant with carboplatin.[1]

Like zeniplatin and carboplatin, use of enloplatin causes manageable nephrotoxicity, no significant neurotoxicity or ototoxicity, and dose-limiting myelosuppression.[1]
The drug was original developed by Wyeth, but no further development since 2000 has been reported.[4]
Structure
![](../I/Enloplatin.png.webp)
Like any platinum-based antineoplastic drug enloplatin is a coordination complex of platinum. Its two bidentate ligands are a tetrahydropyran-containing amine and cyclobutane dicarboxylic acid (CBDCA). Its CBDCA ligand is identical to that of carboplatin. It was found to have similar pharmokinetics to carboplatin, indicating it is the CBDCA ligand and not the amine that most influences plasma pharmokinetics of these platinum complexes.[1]
Notes
- As hydrate.
