Preferred Name |
pyrazofurin |
|
Synonyms |
pyrazole, -3-carboxamide, 4-Hydroxy-5-beta-L-ribofuranosyl |
|
Definitions |
A nucleoside analog. Pyrazofurin potently inhibits orotidine 5'-monophosphate (OMP) decarboxylase, thereby interfering with de novo synthesis of uridine nucleotides and resulting in cytotoxicity. This agent also causes a rapid depletion of the pyrimidine deoxynucleotide pool, thereby inhibiting DNA synthesis and cell replication. Check for "https://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/treatment/clinical-trials/intervention/C1208" active clinical trials using this agent.
