Description

5-Bromo-2-fluorobenzoic acid methyl ester (5BFME) is a synthetic, non-steroidal compound that is used to treat prostate cancer. 5BFME inhibits the production of prostate specific antigen (PSA) and other androgen levels in prostate cancer cells. 5BFME also has an effect on the cell cycle by inhibiting DNA synthesis, which is likely to have a synergistic effect with other anticancer drugs. 5BFME has shown no selectivity toward any type of cell, which may be due to its ability to modulate cellular biochemical pathways.
