Alanosine (also called SDX-102)[1] is a substance that has been studied for the treatment of pancreatic cancer.[2] It is an antimetabolite. It is used as one of a few experimental treatments for patients with deadly pancreatic cancer when the main chemotherapeutic treatment regimen of gemcitabine is no longer useful.[needs update]
