Porfimer sodium is a photosensitizing agent used in photodynamic therapy for the treatment of certain types of cancer, most notably esophageal cancer and non-small cell lung cancer. It is administered alongside light exposure to produce cytotoxic reactive oxygen species in tumor tissues. Porfimer sodium (Photofrin) is approved for clinical use in several countries.
