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). |
Decitabine | Dacogen | 5-aza-2-deoxycytidine | DNMT inhibitor (Pan) 5 | Dacogen (decitabine) is cytidine analog that incorporates into DNA and forms covalent bonds with DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs), resulting in decreased DNMT activity and hypomethylation, and potentially leading to reduced tumor growth (PMID: 28159832, PMID: 25130173). Dacogen (decitabine) is FDA approved for use in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (FDA.gov). |
