Decitabine [CAS: 2353-33-5], a cytosine analog, is an antineoplastic agent for treating myelodysplastic syndromes and acute myeloid leukemia. It is an azacitidine derivative and limits neoplasm drug resistance and metastasis.

Decitabine: Use and Commercial Availability  

Decitabine, available under the brand name Dacogen, treats myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) across all French-American-British subtypes, including refractory anemia, refractory anemia with excess blasts, chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, etc.

Decitabine Structure and Mechanism of Action Decitabine Structure and Mechanism of Action

The chemical name of Decitabine is 4-Amino-1-(2-deoxy-β-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)-1,3,5-triazin-2(1H)-one. Its chemical formula is C8H12N4O4, and its molecular weight is approximately 228.21 g/mol.

Decitabine inhibits DNA methyltransferase, leading to DNA hypomethylation and apoptosis.

Decitabine Impurities and Synthesis

Impurities in Decitabine can arise from various sources, including degradation of the active pharmaceutical ingredient, reaction with excipients, or contaminants in raw materials. They can affect the drug’s safety, efficacy, and stability. Therefore, rigorous analysis and control of impurities are crucial. Analytical methods such as chromatography and spectroscopy help detect and quantify impurities in Decitabine. The control strategies involve setting impurity limits, implementing good manufacturing practices, and ensuring proper storage and handling of raw materials. Regular testing throughout the manufacturing process1 and stability studies helps monitor and control impurity levels, ensuring the quality of Decitabine.

Daicel Pharma offers a Certificate of Analysis (CoA) for Decitabine impurity standards, such as Decitabine Hydrolytes Acetate and Decitabine Isomer-3, generated from an analytical facility compliant with cGMP standards. The CoA includes a comprehensive characterization report comprising data from techniques like 1H NMR, 13C NMR, IR, MASS, and HPLC purity2. Furthermore, on request, we give additional data like 13C-DEPT and CHN. Daicel Pharma can synthesize unknown Decitabine impurities or degradation products. A complete characterization report accompanies every delivery.
