Pracinostat(SB939) is an orally bioavailable, small-moleculehistone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitorbased onhydroxamic acidwith potential anti-tumor activity characterized by favorable physicochemical, pharmaceutical, and pharmacokinetic properties.

Activity

[edit]

Pracinostat selectively inhibits HDAC class I, II, IV without class III and HDAC6 in class IIb,[1]but has no effect on other Zn-binding enzymes, receptors, and ion channels. It accumulates in tumor cells and exerts a continuous inhibition to histone deacetylase, resulting in acetylated histones accumulation, chromatin remodeling, tumor suppressorgenes transcription,and ultimately,apoptosisof tumor cells.[2]

Clinical medication

[edit]

Clinical studies suggests that pracinostat has potential best pharmacokinetic properties when compared to other oral HDAC inhibitors.[3]In March 2014, pracinostat has grantedOrphan Drugforacute myelocytic leukemia(AML) and for the treatment ofT-cell lymphomaby theFood and Drug Administration.
