Mode of Action

How Does It Work?

Decitabine interferes with the growth of DNA in cancerous cells. It works by modifying the DNA in cells. Specifically, it inhibits an enzyme called DNA methyltransferase, which normally adds chemical tags to the DNA. By blocking this enzyme, decitabine reduces the amount of these tags, leading to a process called hypomethylation. This inhibits the growth and multiplication of cancer cells.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

It may interact with other medicinal products hence please share complete information with your doctor of all the medicines you are taking.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is a group of disorders characterised by abnormal blood cell production and development in the bone marrow. Because it can progress to acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) in some cases, it is frequently classified as a type of blood cancer or a pre-leukemic condition. The myelodysplastic syndrome occurs when the bone marrow does not produce enough healthy blood cells and produces abnormal or immature cells.
