Overview

Elacytarabine is a fatty acid derivative of cytarabine, an approved cytotoxic cancer drug. Cytarabine has limitations such as minimal uptake in solid tumours and is only used to treat leukaemia. Elacytarabine is designed to overcome this limitation and has shown considerable uptake in solid tumour cells.
