Azacitidine is a nucleoside metabolic inhibitor with antineoplastic activity, primarily used in the treatment of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and certain types of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). It acts by incorporation into DNA and RNA, resulting in cytotoxicity and inhibition of DNA methyltransferase. Azacitidine is approved for clinical use and is currently used in therapy.
Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic parameters reported for adult patients with myelodysplastic syndromes after subcutaneous administration of azacitidine.
