A cytoprotective prodrug that is converted to an active metabolite in normal tissues to scavenge free radicals and reduce the toxicity of radiation and certain chemotherapy drugs like cisplatin, protecting healthy cells while having limited activity in tumor tissue. It is used to reduce kidney toxicity from cisplatin and decrease dry mouth from head and neck radiation therapy.
