Avelumab | Bavencio | MSB0010718C | Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor 149 PD-L1/PD-1 antibody 121 | Bavencio (avelumab) is a monoclonal antibody binds to human immunosuppressive ligand programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1, CD274) and blocks protein signaling, resulting in immune regulation and antitumor immunity (PMID: 26014098). Bavencio (avelumab) is FDA-approved for use in adult and pediatric patients of 12 years or older with metastatic Merkel cell carcinoma, as maintenance therapy in locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (UC), in locally advanced or metastatic UC that progressed following chemotherapy, and in combination with axitinib as first-line therapy in advanced renal cell carcinoma (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). |
