About Selinexor (ATG-010)
Selinexor is so far the first and only oral XPO1 inhibitor approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the first drug approved for the treatment of both multiple myeloma and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. By blocking the nuclear export protein XPO1, selinexor can promote the intranuclear accumulation and activation of tumor suppressor proteins and growth regulating proteins, and down-regulate the levels of multiple oncogenic proteins, thus induces apoptosis without affecting normal cells. Due to its novel mechanism of action, selinexor can be used in multiple combination regimens to improve treatment efficacy.
