説明Nelarabine is a new member of the purine nucleoside antimetabolite class of drugs. It was launched as an intravenous infusion for treating relapsed or refractory T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) and T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL) after at least two prior chemotherapy regimens. Nelarabine is a pro-drug of 9-b-D-arabinofuranosylguanine (ara-G), a deoxyguanosine derivative with a high level of T-cell selective cytotoxicity. Although Ara-G has been known since the 1960s, it has not been used in clinical studies due to its poor solubility. Nelarabine is the O-methyl derivative of ara-G with approximately 10 times greater aqueous solubility. It is demethylated in vivo by adenosine deaminase to produce ara-G, which is subsequently converted to the active 5’-triphosphate, ara-GTP. Accumulation of ara-GTP in leukemic blasts allows for incorporation into DNA, leading to inhibition of DNA synthesis and cell death.

使用A chemotherapy drug used in the treatment of relapsed/refractory T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) and T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL).

定義ChEBI: Nelarabine is a purine nucleoside in which O-methylguanine is attached to arabinofuranose via a beta-N(9)-glycosidic bond. Inhibits DNA synthesis and causes cell death; a prodrug of 9-beta-D-arabinofuranosylguanine (ara-G). It has a role as an antineoplastic agent, a DNA synthesis inhibitor and a prodrug. It is a purine nucleoside, a beta-D-arabinoside and a monosaccharide derivative. It is functionally related to a guanine and a 9-beta-D-arabinofuranosylguanine.
