Mechanism Of Action:
- Exhibits immunomodulatory properties.
- Activates and increases number of T cells and NK cells
- Increases number of NKT cells
- Inhibits pro-inflammatory cytokines (e.g., TNF-a, and IL-6) by monocytes
- Inhibits cell proliferation and induces apoptosis of tumor cells in vitro and inhibition of tumor growth in vivo, leading to a decrease in tumor burden.
- Inhibits angiogenesis by reducing levels of VEGF, TNF-a, and IL-6.
Indication:
- Newly diagnosed multiple myeloma(MM) in patients who have undergone/ or not eligible for autologous stem cell transplantation, and Multiple myeloma in patients who have received at least one prior therapy
- Myelodysplastic syndromes(MDS)
- Mantle cell lymphoma(MCL)
- Follicular lymphoma
