FDA approved 10/26/2012. Also known as HHT, homoharringtonine, or Omapro.

General information

Class/mechanism: Cephalotaxine ester & natural alkaloid that inhibits protein synthesis/translation/elongation; prepared via a semi-synthetic process from cephalotaxine, an extract of Cephalotaxus species leaves. Mechanism is not fully understood, but omacetaxine mepesuccinate inhibits protein synthesis and promotes apoptosis in a manner that does not involve direct binding of Bcr-Abl. Omacetaxine mepesuccinate has been observed to bind to the A-site cleft in the large ribosomal subunit of a type of archaeabacteria. It reduces levels of Bcr-Abl and human induced myeloid leukemia cell differentiation protein Mcl-1, an anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 family member. Omacetaxine mepesuccinate has been seen to have activity in mouse models with wild-type Bcr-Abl, as well as imatinib-resistant chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) models with the T315I mutation.[1][2][3]
