Pharmacology
Gemtuzumab ozogamicin is a CD33-directed antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) that binds CD33-expressing tumor cells, undergoes internalization of the ADC-CD33 complex, and releases N-acetyl gamma calicheamicin dimethyl hydrazide intracellularly via hydrolytic linker cleavage; the activated calicheamicin derivative induces double-strand DNA breaks, leading to cell cycle arrest and apoptotic cell death.
Olutasidenib is a small-molecule inhibitor of mutated isocitrate dehydrogenase-1 (IDH1); it inhibits mutant IDH1 proteins (R132H, R132C, and others), reducing 2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG) levels in leukemia cells and promoting differentiation.
