Forodesine
An investigational purine nucleoside phosphorylase inhibitor that disrupts the metabolism of deoxyguanosine in lymphoid cells, leading to selective death of malignant T-cells. It has been studied for the treatment of T-cell leukemia and lymphoma. This targeted mechanism offers a potentially more selective approach compared to conventional chemotherapy.
