BNP7787 (disodium 2,2'-dithio-bis-ethane sulfonate) was evaluated in a phase I clinical trial with paclitaxel and cisplatin to assess the safety and potential efficacy for preventing or reducing cisplatin- and paclitaxel-induced toxicities. During this trial the effects of BNP7787 administration on

Expression systems based on self-cleavable intein domains allow the generation of recombinant proteins with a C-terminal thioester. This uniquely reactive C-terminus can be used in native chemical ligation reactions to introduce synthetic groups or to immobilize proteins on surfaces and

A sensitive and accurate assay was developed and validated to determine BNP7787 (dimesna), a new protector against cisplatin-induced toxicities, and its metabolite mesna in plasma and urine of patients. Both analytes were measured as mesna in deproteinized plasma or in

BNP7787 is a new chemoprotective agent presently under clinical investigation to protect against cisplatin-induced toxicities, especially nephrotoxicity and neurotoxicity. In the kidneys BNP7787 is postulated to undergo selective conversion into mesna, which can locally detoxify cisplatin. The reactivity of cisplatin
