Vesnarinone has been shown to be a unique anti-proliferating, differentiation-inducing and apoptosis inducing drug against several human malignancies, including leukemia and several solid tumors. Furthermore, vesnarinone potentiates the effect of conventional cytotoxic chemotherapy or radiation therapy. Combination of differentiation-inducing therapy by vesnarinone with conventional chemotherapy or radiation therapy might be second- or third-line therapy in patients with advanced cancer. Analysis of the molecular mechanisms of the tumor differentiation therapy by vesnarinone might provide selective and targeted molecules for novel tumor dormancy therapy.
