Elacytarabine (CAT: I006455), also known as CP-4055, is an antineoplastic prodrug with potential therapeutic benefits. It is the lipophilic 5′-elaidic acid ester of cytarabine (cytosine arabinoside; Ara-C), a deoxycytidine analog. Within cells, CP-4055 is converted into cytarabine triphosphate by the enzyme deoxycytidine kinase. It competes with cytidine for incorporation into DNA, resulting in the inhibition of DNA synthesis. Compared to cytarabine, CP-4055 demonstrates enhanced cellular uptake and retention, increased activation by deoxycytidine kinase, reduced deamination and deactivation by deoxycytidine deaminase, and enhanced inhibition of DNA synthesis.
