Pharmacology
Decitabine is a nucleoside metabolic inhibitor that incorporates into DNA and inhibits DNA methyltransferase, causing hypomethylation and cellular differentiation or apoptosis; cedazuridine inhibits cytidine deaminase in the gastrointestinal tract and liver to increase systemic exposure of orally administered decitabine.
Ivosidenib is a small molecule inhibitor of the mutant isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) enzyme that reduces 2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG) levels and induces myeloid differentiation in IDH1-mutated AML; in IDH1-mutated cholangiocarcinoma, it also reduces 2-HG levels in tumor tissue.
