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). |
Leuprolide | Lupron | Leuprorelin | Lupron (leuprolide) is an agonist of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH), which results decreased testosterone production in males and decreased estradiol production in females, potentially leading to decreased growth of androgen-positive tumors (NCI Drug Dictionary). | |
Tretinoin | Vesanoid | Aberel|Aknoten|Avita|Renova|Retin-A|all-trans retinoic acid|Vitamin A Acid|ATRA | Vesanoid (tretinoin) is a form of retinoic acid, which binds to retinoic acid receptors and activates downstream signaling, potentially inducing cell differentiation and subsequently, apoptosis (PMID: 11704842). Vesanoid (tretinoin) is FDA approved for patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia harboring PML-RARA (FDA.gov). |
