Azacitidine | Vidaza | azacytidine|CC-486|5-azacytidine|5-AC|U-18496|Onureg | DNMT inhibitor (Pan) 5 | Vidaza (azacitidine) is a cytidine analog that incorporates into DNA and RNA and binds to DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs), resulting in DNMT degradation and decreased DNA methylation, and leading to increased tumor cell death (PMID: 28159832, PMID: 28067760). Vidaza (azacitidine) is FDA-approved for use in patients with some subtypes of myelodysplastic syndrome and Onureg (azacitidine) is FDA approved for use in continued treatment of acute myeloid leukemia(FDA.gov). |
Ruxolitinib | Jakafi | INCB 18424|INCB018424|INCB18424 | JAK1 Inhibitor - ATP competitive 5 JAK2 Inhibitor - ATP competitive 15 | Jakafi (ruxolitinib) is an inhibitor of protein tyrosine kinases JAK1 and JAK2, thus resulting in reduced inflammation and reduced proliferation (PMID: 22474318).
