NCIt synonyms : Oral JAK Inhibitor INCB18424; (3R)-3-cyclopentyl-3-(4-(7h-pyrrolo(2,3-d)pyrimidin-4-yl)pyrazol-1-yl)propanenitrile;
NCIt definition : An orally bioavailable Janus-associated kinase (JAK) inhibitor with potential antineoplastic
and immunomodulating activities. Ruxolitinib specifically binds to and inhibits protein
tyrosine kinases JAK 1 and 2, which may lead to a reduction in inflammation and an
inhibition of cellular proliferation. The JAK-STAT (signal transducer and activator
of transcription) pathway plays a key role in the signaling of many cytokines and
growth factors and is involved in cellular proliferation, growth, hematopoiesis, and
the immune response; JAK kinases may be upregulated in inflammatory diseases, myeloproliferative
disorders, and various malignancies.;
