?:definition
  • An antifolate derived from diaminopyrimidine with cytotoxic properties. With a mechanism of action similar to that of methotrexate (MTX), m-azidopyrimethamine blocks tetrahydrofolate synthesis, resulting in depletion of nucleotide precursors and inhibition of DNA, RNA and protein synthesis. This agent is more lipophilic but less potent than MTX. Check for \'https://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/treatment/clinical-trials/intervention/C2366\' active clinical trials using this agent.
