RYTELO, approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on June 6, 2024, is a first-in-class telomerase inhibitor. RYTELO binds to the template region of the RNA component of human telomerase (hTR), inhibiting telomerase enzymatic activity and preventing telomere binding.1 Increased telomerase activity has been reported in MDS malignant stem and progenitor cells.
