Cladribine is a white powder, Cladribine is a synthetic anti-cancer agent that also suppresses the immune system. Chemically, Cladribine mimics the nucleoside adenosine and thus inhibits the enzyme adenosine deaminase, which interferes with the cell's ability to process DNA. Cladribine is easily destroyed by normal cells except for blood cells, with the result that it produces relatively few side effects and results in very little non-target cell loss.
