2-Amino -6-chloro-9-(2-β-C-methyl-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-9H-purine is a purine nucleoside analogue. Purine nucleoside analogs have broad antitumor activity targeting indolent lymphoid malignancies. Anticancer mechanisms in this process rely on inhibition of DNA synthesis, induction of apoptosis, etc[1].
