Melflufen
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Melflufen (Melphalan flufenamide), a dipeptide proagent of Melphalan, is an alkylating agent. Melflufen shows antitumor activity against multiple myeloma (MM) cells and inhibits angiogenesis. Melflufen induces irreversible DNA damage and cytotoxicity in MM cells.

Melflufen (Melphalan flufenamide) (0.5-10 μM; 24 hours) decreases viability of MM.1S, INA-6, RPMI-8226, MM.1R, Dox-40, ARP-1, and ANBL-6 cells in a concentration-dependent manner[1].
Melflufen induces apoptosis in MM.1S cells[1].
Melphalan also is a potent activator of exosome secretion[3].
