Pharmacology
Filgrastim is a recombinant human G-CSF that binds to specific cell surface receptors on hematopoietic cells, stimulating neutrophil progenitor proliferation and differentiation and enhancing end-cell functional activities including phagocytic ability, respiratory burst priming, and antibody-dependent killing.
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.
