Overview

Generic Name(s):
omacetaxine mepesuccinate
Trade Name(s):
Synribo
NCI Definition [1]:
A semisynthetic formulation of the cytotoxic plant alkaloid homoharringtonine isolated from the evergreen tree Cephalotaxus with potential antineoplastic activity. Omacetaxine mepesuccinate binds to the 80S ribosome in eukaryotic cells and inhibits protein synthesis by interfering with chain elongation. This agent also induces differentiation and apoptosis in some cancer cell types.

Omacetaxine mepesuccinate has been investigated in 1 clinical trial, of which 0 are open and 1 is closed. Of the trial investigating omacetaxine mepesuccinate, 1 is phase 2 (0 open).

CBFB-MYH11 Fusion, KMT2A Fusion, and KMT2A-AFF1 Fusion are the most frequent biomarker inclusion criteria for omacetaxine mepesuccinate clinical trials.

Acute myeloid leukemia is the most common disease being investigated in omacetaxine mepesuccinate clinical trials [2].
