Cisplatin CAS 15663-27-1

High-Purity Cisplatin from Aure Chemical – Your Trusted Source

Cisplatin, cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) or cis-[PtCl₂(NH₃)₂], CAS No. 15663-27-1, is a foundational platinum-based chemotherapeutic agent and one of the most widely used anticancer drugs in oncology. Supplied by Aure Chemical as a bright yellow to yellow-orange crystalline powder with high platinum content (approximately 64.8–65.0% Pt), this square-planar Pt(II) complex exhibits potent antitumor activity through DNA crosslinking and is a critical active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in approved cancer treatments. Its clinical efficacy against testicular, ovarian, bladder, lung, and head/neck cancers, combined with well-characterized pharmacology, maintains its essential role in modern chemotherapy regimens. Aure Chemical provides pharmaceutical-grade material with stringent impurity control, batch-to-batch consistency, and full compliance documentation to support drug product manufacturing, clinical research, and formulation development worldwide.

Primary Applications of Cisplatin

Cisplatin remains a cornerstone chemotherapeutic agent, delivering proven clinical efficacy across multiple cancer types through its unique DNA-binding mechanism.

1. Testicular Cancer Treatment
   Serves as the standard first-line therapy for advanced testicular germ cell tumors, achieving high cure rates in combination regimens due to its exceptional sensitivity in these malignancies.

2. Ovarian Cancer Chemotherapy
   Used in frontline and recurrent platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer protocols, often in combination with taxanes or other agents, providing significant progression-free and overall survival benefits.

3. Bladder and Urothelial Cancer
   Forms the backbone of neoadjuvant, adjuvant, and metastatic cisplatin-based chemotherapy for muscle-invasive and advanced urothelial carcinoma.

4. Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma
   Essential component of concurrent chemoradiotherapy and induction regimens for locally advanced head and neck cancers, improving locoregional control and survival.

5. Lung Cancer (NSCLC)
   Included in platinum doublet regimens for advanced non-small cell lung cancer, particularly in combination with gemcitabine, pemetrexed, or vinorelbine for non-squamous histology.

6. Pharmaceutical Research & Combination Therapies
   Employed in clinical trials, liposomal formulations, nanoparticle delivery systems, and combination studies to enhance efficacy and reduce toxicity in modern oncology development.
