What is Epacadostat?

Epacadostat is an orally available hydroxyamidine that inhibits indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1), the enzyme that converts tryptophan into kynurenine. By reducing kynurenine, it is intended to restore immune cell proliferation and activation. It is studied in fallopian tube carcinoma, ovarian carcinoma, primary peritoneal carcinoma and head and neck cancer.
