2-Chloro-2′-deoxyadenosine (2-CdA) is a chlorinated purine nucleoside with activity against lymphoproliferative disorders, such as hairy cell leukemia (HCL) and multiple myeloma (MM). 2-CdA resists ADA degradation and is phosphorylated to CdATP in lymphocytes. CdATP incorporation into DNA induces strand breaks and the activation of apoptosis. 2-CdA may also be used in studies involving the inhibition of DNA polymerase(s). Cladribiane, like fludarabine, is a prodrug that is must be phosphorylated intracellularly to the monophosphate by the nuclear/cytosol enzyme deoxycytidine kinase (dCK) and possibly by the mitochondrial enzyme deoxyguanosine kinase (dGK).
Cladribiane, like fludarabine, is a prodrug that is must be phosphorylated intracellularly to the monophosphate by the nuclear/cytosol enzyme deoxycytidine kinase (dCK) and possibly by the mitochondrial enzyme deoxyguanosine kinase (dGK). Clinically used for treatment of hairy cell leukemia, chronic lymphocytic leukemia and other indolent leukemias.

Deoxyadenosine analog resistant to adenosine deaminase; antileukemic with immunosuppressive activity
For the past few years more and more new cytotoxic agents active in the treatment of hematological malignancies have been synthesized and become available for either in vitro studies or clinical trials. Among them the class of antineoplastic drugs belonging
The effectiveness of arabinosylcytosine (ara-C) for the treatment of acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) depends on the formation of its active metabolite, the triphosphate of ara-C (ara-CTP). Using biochemical modulation strategies to increase the accumulation of ara-CTP in leukemia blasts, a
Hairy cell leukemia (HCL) is a rare, indolent B-cell disorder in which single courses of cladribine induce high rates of complete responses. We report on 88 young HCL patients (≤40 years of age at diagnosis) treated with cladribine from the
Nucleoside analogs (NAs) represent an important class of anticancer agents that induce cell death after conversion to triphosphate derivatives. One of their most important mechanisms of action is the activation of p53, leading to apoptosis through the intrinsic pathway. Classically

Fludarabine and cladribine are purine analogues used to treat hematological malignancies. Alone or in combination with therapeutic antibodies, they are effective in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. However, the mechanisms of action of these drugs are
