Forodesine (INN; also known as Immucillin H) is a transition-state analog inhibitor of purine nucleoside phosphorylase[1] under development for the treatment of relapsed B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia

Immucillin H was originally discovered by Vern Schramm's laboratory at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York and Industrial Research Limited in New Zealand.

Forodesine is being developed by BioCryst Pharmaceuticals as Fodosine. As of 2008, it is currently in phase II clinical trials.[2][needs update]
